Starting an h2 database console via command line
I have to post this because I am so sure I will have forgotten it once I don’t use it for two days:
$ java -cp h2*.jar org.h2.tools.Server
If you are using maven, as I do, the h2 packages reside in PATHTO/.m2/repository/com/h2database/h2/LATESTVERSION/.
