The output parameter is used to define the output file name (if the path is not defined, the module will attempt to write to the current directory). In case of a database connection as output, the connection string has to be specified.
The layer parameter is needed if the attribute table to be exported is linked as non-default layer to a vector map.
db.out.ogr input=precip_30ynormals output=precip_30ynormals.csv
