VMS Help  —  INITIALIZE  /QUEUE  Qualifiers  /SEPARATE
       /SEPARATE=(option[,...])
       /NOSEPARATE (default)

    Specifies the mandatory queue options, or job separation options,
    for an output execution queue. Job separation options cannot be
    overridden by the PRINT command.

    You cannot use the /SEPARATE qualifier with the /GENERIC
    qualifier.

    The job separation options are as follows:

    [NO]BURST              Specifies whether two job flag pages with
                           a burst bar between them are printed at
                           the beginning of each job.

    [NO]FLAG               Specifies whether a job flag page is
                           printed at the beginning of each job.

    [NO]TRAILER            Specifies whether a job trailer page is
                           printed at the end of each job.

    [NO]RESET=(module[,...]Specifies one or more device control
                           library modules that contain the job reset
                           sequence for the queue. The specified
                           modules from the queue's device control
                           library (by default SYS$LIBRARY:SYSDEVCTL)
                           are used to reset the device at the end
                           of each job. The RESET sequence occurs
                           after any file trailer and before any job
                           trailer. Thus, all job separation pages
                           are printed when the device is in its
                           RESET state.

    When you specify the /SEPARATE=BURST qualifier, the [NO]FLAG
    separation option does not add or subtract a flag page from the
    two flag pages that are printed preceding the job.

    For information on establishing queue options that can be
    overridden, see the description of the /DEFAULT qualifier.

    For more information on specifying mandatory queue options, see
    the chapter on queues in the VSI OpenVMS System Manager's Manual.
