1    /BASE_SYSTEM

       /BASE_SYSTEM=base-system-name

    Selects software products whose base system matches the one
    specified. The base system name identifies both a hardware
    platform and an operating system. Standard names are:

    Name          Description

    AXPVMS        Denotes an OpenVMS Alpha product.
    I64VMS        Denotes an OpenVMS I64 product.
    VAXVMS        Denotes an OpenVMS VAX product.
    VMS           Indicates a product that can be installed on more
                  than one OpenVMS platform.

2    /LOG

       /LOG
       /NOLOG (default)

    Displays the file specification of each file processed. When
    logging is enabled, messages notify you whenever product files,
    libraries, directories, and product database files are created,
    deleted, or modified.

3    /OPTIONS

       /OPTIONS=(keyword[,...])
       /NOOPTIONS (default)

    Specifies PRODUCT command options. Keywords are:

    NOCONFIRM        Omits the confirmation dialog that asks the user
                     to verify the products that have been selected
                     for the operation.

    SHOW_DISK_USAGE  Displays estimated disk block usage. Both peak
                     utilization and net change are shown in addition
                     to the amount of free space available before and
                     after the operation.

4    /PRODUCER

       /PRODUCER=producer-name

    Selects software products that the specified manufacturer
    produces.

5    /REMARK

       /REMARK=string

    Records a comment in the product database about the task you
    are performing. The PRODUCT SHOW HISTORY command displays the
    recorded comments. For each product, PCSI stores a chronological
    list of tasks you perform and the associated remarks. The default
    behavior is that no remark is recorded.

6    /REMOTE

       /REMOTE
       /NOREMOTE (default)

    Selects the product database located on a privately mounted
    system disk. By default, PCSI searches the currently booted
    system disk for the product database.

    When you use /REMOTE, the following logical names must be
    defined:

    o  PCSI$SYSDEVICE must specify the physical disk name of the
       target system disk. This disk must be mounted and allocated to
       the process executing the PRODUCT command.

    o  PCSI$SPECIFIC must point to a system root on PCSI$SYSDEVICE.
       It must be defined in the following form, where x is a valid
       system root:

       PCSI$SYSDEVICE:[SYSx.]

7    /TRACE

       /TRACE
       /NOTRACE (default)

    Identifies the creation and deletion of subprocesses and the DCL
    commands and command procedures submitted to these subprocesses
    for execution during the processing of the PRODUCT command.
    Also shows the creation and deletion of scratch directories and
    temporary files that the PCSI utility provides for the subprocess
    environment. Any output that DCL produces is also displayed.

    This qualifier is primarily a debugging aid for product
    developers to trace the execution of command procedures included
    in their product kits. See the POLYCENTER Software Installation
    Utility Developer's Guide for more information.

8    /VERSION

       /VERSION=version-number

    Selects software products that have the specified version.

9    /WORK

       /WORK=device:[directory]

    Specifies the name of the device and directory acting as a
    temporary work area. By default, temporary files are created
    in subdirectories of the the user's login directory.
