you could edit conmngrs.properties file manually... But that is probably not what you are looking for.
Any reason why you want to do it from command line?

The conmngrs.properties file is the file in which the data resides from the databases which have been configured with the progress explorer.

If you are on version 10 then you could use the mergeprop utility (look for this at PSDN or in the OpenEdge 10.1B Installation & configuration guide.

If you are on 9 you could edit the conmngr.properties file or write some script to do this.

The properties file is somewhat self explantory (Parameters are in the comment) and resides in $DLC/properties. (Backup before you change)

Simple sports database startup config looks like:

[configuration.sportstest.defaultconfiguration]
afterimagebuffers=75
beforeimagebuffers=50
blocksindatabasebuffers=10000
database=sportstest
displayname=defaultConfiguration
maxservers=7
maxusers=38
servergroups=sportstest.defaultconfiguration.defaultservergroup
spinlockretries=1

[database.sportstest]
configurations=sportstest.defaultconfiguration
databasename=C:\OpenEdge101B\wrk\sports\sports2000
defaultconfiguration=sportstest.defaultconfiguration
displayname=sportstest

[servergroup.sportstest.defaultconfiguration.defaultservergroup]
configuration=sportstest.defaultconfiguration
displayname=defaultServerGroup
maxclientsperserver=5
numberofservers=7
port=12000

HTH,
