/CONFIRM /NOCONFIRM (default) Controls whether the STARTUP MODIFY command displays the file specification of each file before modifying its startup characteristics in the startup data file and requests you to confirm that the file characteristics be modified. If you specify /CONFIRM, you must respond to the prompt with a Y (Yes) or a T (True) and press Return before the file is modified. If you enter anything else, such as N or No, the requested file is not modified.
