/IGNORE[=options] /NOIGNORE (D) Directs MMS to specify the severity levels of errors that MMS normally ignores when it executes action lines. The parameters correspond to the DCL severity levels W, E, and F. The /NOIGNORE qualifier directs MMS to abort execution when it finds an error. These qualifiers affect the execution of action lines but not the behavior of MMS. The options field can contain the keyword WARNING, ERROR, or FATAL. WARNING directs MMS to ignore W errors and continue processing, but to abort execution if it finds an E or F error. If you specify the /IGNORE qualifier without parameters, WARNING is the default. ERROR directs MMS to ignore both W and E errors, but to abort execution if it finds an F error. FATAL directs MMS to ignore all errors, and to continue processing the description file. This parameter is equivalent to the .IGNORE directive. When you specify the /IGNORE qualifier, the errors that MMS ignores are those generated by the execution of action lines. The only fatal errors MMS will not ignore are syntax errors. The /IGNORE qualifier does not stop MMS error messages from being generated or displayed. Informational messages are always displayed, regardless of whether you use the /IGNORE qualifier. NOTE Take caution when executing MMS with the /IGNORE qualifier; if errors occur during processing, the target might be updated but still contain errors of which you will not be aware. The .IGNORE directive and the Ignore action line prefix are similar to the /IGNORE=FATAL qualifier. However, instead of typing them on the command line, you include them in the description file. To override the .IGNORE directive contained in a description file, type the /IGNORE[=WARNING], /IGNORE=ERROR, or /IGNORE=FATAL qualifier explicitly on the MMS command line. You cannot override the Ignore action-line prefix on the MMS command line.
