element-expression Specifies one or more elements. An element expression can be an element name, a group name, a wildcard expression, or a list of these separated by commas. remark Specifies a character string to be logged in the history file with this command, usually used to explain why the command was entered. The remark is enclosed in quotation marks. If no remark was entered, a null remark ("") is logged.

4 – Qualifiers
4.1 /CONFIRM
Controls whether CMS prompts you for confirmation before each transaction. When you specify /CONFIRM and run CMS in interactive mode, CMS prompts you for confirmation. If you type YES, ALL, TRUE, or 1, CMS executes the transaction. If you type NO, QUIT, FALSE, 0, or press RETURN or CTRL/Z, no action is performed. If you type any other character, CMS continues to prompt until you type an acceptable response. CMS does not prompt for confirmation in batch mode.
4.2 /GENERATION[=generation-expression]
Specifies the generation of the element with which to associate the review remark. If you omit /GENERATION, CMS uses the most recently created generation with a review pending. You specify this qualifier only if more than one generation of an element is under review.
4.3 /LOG (D)
Controls whether CMS displays success and informational messages on the default output device. By default, if the command executes successfully, CMS displays a success message. If you specify /NOLOG, success and informational messages are suppressed. Any warning, error, or fatal error messages are displayed regardless of whether /LOG or /NOLOG is specified.
4.4 /OCCLUDE[=option,...]
Controls whether CMS selects the first instance of the specified object, or all instances of the specified object in the library search list. The options field contains one or more keywords associated with the name of the object. The options field can contain the following keywords: ALL--equivalent to (ELEMENT, GROUP, CLASS) ELEMENT (D) NOELEMENT GROUP (D) NOGROUP CLASS (D) NOCLASS NONE--equivalent to (NOELEMENT, NOGROUP, NOCLASS) You can specify either ALL or NONE, or any combination of the [NO]ELEMENT, [NO]GROUP, and [NO]CLASS keywords. By default, CMS performs occlusion for all objects; that is, CMS selects only the first occurrence of a specified object.
5 – Example
$ CMS REVIEW GENERATION EXAMPLE.SDML "looks ok to me--JEFF" %CMS-S-REVIEWED, generation 3 of element DISKX:[PROJECT.CMSLIB]EXAMPLE.SDML reviewed In this example, the latest generation of the element EXAMPLE.SDML is pending review; the REVIEW GENERATION command allows users to associate review comments with that generation. The generation can then be accepted, canceled, or rejected. Use the SHOW REVIEWS_PENDING command to display all generations under review in the library.
