/OUTPUT[=filespec] /NOOUTPUT The /OUTPUT qualifier controls where the output of the command is sent. The /NOOUTPUT qualifier suppresses output. If you specify /OUTPUT and a file specification (/OUTPUT=filespec), the output is sent to the specified file, rather than to the current output device, SYS$OUTPUT. If you do not enter the qualifier, or if you enter the /OUTPUT qualifier without a file specification, the output is sent to SYS$OUTPUT. Using the /OUTPUT qualifier does not affect the result (that is, the DCL symbol CHECKSUM$CHECKSUM).
