1 – CLASS
Changes the characteristics of a specified class or classes.
Format:
MODIFY CLASS class-expression /qualifier "remark"
1.1 – Restrictions
o You cannot modify a class that has read-only access. If a
class has read-only access, you must change it to NOREAD_
ONLY access to change the contents of the class or any other
characteristics.
o You must specify one or more of the following qualifiers:
/NAME, /[NO]READ_ONLY, /REMARK.
1.2 – Command Parameters
class-expression
Specifies the class being modified. A class expression can be a
class 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. Note that this parameter
and the string on the /REMARK qualifier are unrelated.
1.3 – Description
The MODIFY CLASS command changes the characteristics of one or
more classes. You can alter the following characteristics:
o The name of the class.
o The access to the class (READ_ONLY or NOREAD_ONLY). You cannot
change the contents, the name, or the remark of a class that
has been set to READ_ONLY.
o The creation remark that is associated with the class.
Use the SHOW CLASS command to display class characteristics.
1.4 – Qualifiers
1.4.1 /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.
1.4.2 /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.
1.4.3 /NAME=class-name
Specifies the new name for the class. The new class name cannot
be the same as an existing class or group name. If a previously
used class or group name has been removed with the DELETE CLASS or
DELETE GROUP command, you can reuse that name. Wildcards and comma
lists are not allowed.
If you specify the /NAME qualifier, you cannot use wildcards or a
comma list in the class-name parameter, nor can you use a wildcard
for the /NAME qualifier. You cannot change the name of a class
that has read-only access.
1.4.4 /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 CLASS
CLASS (D)
NOCLASS
NONE--equivalent to NOCLASS
You can specify either ALL, NONE, or the [NO]CLASS keyword.
By default, CMS performs occlusion for all objects; that is, CMS
selects only the first occurrence of a specified object.
1.4.5 /READ_ONLY
1.4.6 /NOREAD_ONLY
Establishes or alters the read-only attribute of a class. To
change the characteristics of a read-only class, you must set
the class to NOREAD_ONLY. NOREAD_ONLY is the default attribute of
a class when it is created with the CREATE CLASS command.
1.4.7 /REMARK="string"
Specifies a new remark to be substituted for the creation remark
that is associated with the class. You cannot change the remark of
a class that has been set to READ_ONLY.
1.5 – Examples
(1) CMS> MODIFY CLASS PRE_RELEASE/READ_ONLY "freeze internal version"
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, class DISKX:[PROJECT.CMSLIB]PRE_RELEASE modified
This command sets the class named PRE_RELEASE to READ_ONLY.
(2) CMS> MODIFY CLASS PRE_RELEASE/NOREAD_ONLY/NAME=PRE_RELEASE_V3
_Remark: include additional functions
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, class DISKX:[PROJECT.CMSLIB]PRE_RELEASE modified
This example renames class PRE_RELEASE to PRE_RELEASE_V3.
Because PRE_RELEASE had been set to READ_ONLY, it is necessary
to use the /NOREAD_ONLY qualifier to modify the class.
2 – ELEMENT
Changes the characteristics of a specified element or elements.
Format:
MODIFY ELEMENT element-expression /qualifier "remark"
2.1 – Restrictions
o You cannot modify an element if it is set to read-only access.
o You can modify only the reference copy, remark, and review
attributes of an element that has a generation reserved.
o If you specify /NOTES, you must also specify /POSITION on the
same command line.
o You must specify one or more of the following qualifiers:
/[NO]CONCURRENT
/[NO]HISTORY
/NAME
/[NO]NOTES
/POSITION
/[NO]REFERENCE_COPY
/REMARK
/[NO]REVIEW
2.2 – Command Parameters
element-expression
Specifies one or more elements to be modified. 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. Note that this parameter
and the string on the /REMARK qualifier are unrelated.
2.3 – Description
The MODIFY ELEMENT command changes the characteristics of one or
more elements. You can alter the following characteristics:
o The concurrent attribute of the element
o The history string that is inserted in the element history when
the element is reserved or fetched
o The element name
o The notes string and related position attribute
o The reference copy attribute of the element
o The creation remark that is associated with the element
o The review attribute
Use the SHOW ELEMENT command to display element characteristics.
If the history, notes, or position attribute is modified on an
element that has the reference copy attribute, CMS creates an
updated reference copy for the element.
2.4 – Qualifiers
2.4.1 /CONCURRENT
2.4.2 /NOCONCURRENT
Specifies whether this element can have multiple reservations. If
you do not specify this qualifier, the existing concurrent access
is not changed.
2.4.3 /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.
2.4.4 /HISTORY="string"
Establishes the history attribute for the element. If an element
has a history attribute, its history (which is similar to that
produced by the ANNOTATE command) is included in the file when you
retrieve it with the FETCH or RESERVE command.
The quoted string specifies the format of the history. The quoted
string must contain the characters #H or #B (lowercase is allowed)
and can contain other printing characters. To include a quotation
mark in the output history string, type it twice (""). To include
a number sign (#) in the output history string, type it twice
(##).
2.4.5 /NOHISTORY
Deletes any existing history attribute. If both /HISTORY and
/NOHISTORY are omitted, any existing history attribute remains
unchanged.
2.4.6 /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.
2.4.7 /NAME=element-name
Specifies the new name for the element. The new element name
cannot be the same as an existing element name. Do not use the
file name 00CMS because this name is reserved for CMS. If you
specify the /NAME qualifier, you cannot use wildcards or a comma
list in the element-name parameter, nor can you use a wildcard for
the /NAME qualifier.
If an element is set to /REFERENCE_COPY, CMS creates a new
reference copy of the element in the reference copy directory.
2.4.8 /NOTES="string"
Establishes the notes attribute for the element. If an element
has a notes attribute, notes are appended to the lines of the file
when it is retrieved by the FETCH or RESERVE command.
The quoted string specifies the format of the note. The quoted
string can contain text or the characters #G (or #g), or both.
2.4.9 /NONOTES
Cancels any current notes attribute and the corresponding position
attribute.
If both /NOTES and /NONOTES are omitted, any existing notes
attribute remains unchanged.
2.4.10 /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)
ELEMENT (D)
NOELEMENT
GROUP (D)
NOGROUP
NONE--equivalent to (NOELEMENT, NOGROUP)
You can specify either ALL or NONE, or any combination of the
[NO]ELEMENT and [NO]GROUP keywords.
By default, CMS performs occlusion for all objects; that is, CMS
selects only the first occurrence of a specified object.
2.4.11 /POSITION=n
Establishes the position attribute; that is, the character
position at which the note generated by the /NOTES qualifier is to
begin on the line. A file that has a position attribute must have
a notes attribute. Thus, the /POSITION qualifier can be used only
if the element already has an established notes attribute, or the
/NOTES qualifier is used on the same MODIFY ELEMENT command.
The value n is required and must be an integer in the range 1 to
511. If the length of the line is less than n, the note appears
at position n. If the length of the line is greater than or equal
to n, the note is placed at the next tab stop after the end of
the line. (Tab stops are at position 9 and every 8 characters
thereafter.)
If you omit /POSITION, any current position attribute remains
unchanged.
2.4.12 /REFERENCE_COPY
2.4.13 /NOREFERENCE_COPY
Controls whether a new reference copy of an element is created or
deleted. If you specify /REFERENCE_COPY, CMS creates a new
reference copy of the element in the reference copy directory and
updates the current reference copy directory whenever you create a
new main line generation of the element. If you specify
/NOREFERENCE_COPY, CMS deletes the existing reference copy of the
element. The reference copy directory must be established before
you issue the MODIFY ELEMENT/REFERENCE_COPY command. Use the MODIFY
LIBRARY/REFERENCE_COPY command to establish the reference copy
directory.
Controls whether CMS creates a new reference copy of an element
whenever you create a new main line generation of the element. If
you specify /NOREFERENCE_COPY, CMS deletes the existing reference
copy.
To establish the reference copy directory, use the MODIFY
LIBRARY/REFERENCE_COPY command.
2.4.14 /REMARK="string"
Specifies a new remark to be substituted for the creation remark
that is associated with the element.
2.4.15 /REVIEW
2.4.16 /NOREVIEW
Controls whether new generations of the element are marked for
review. If you specify /REVIEW, new generations of the element are
marked for review. If you specify /NOREVIEW, new generations are
marked only if the reserved generation is either rejected or has a
review pending. If you do not specify this qualifier, the existing
review attribute is not changed.
To determine whether an element has the review attribute enabled,
use the SHOW ELEMENT/FULL command.
2.5 – Examples
(1) CMS> MODIFY ELEMENT INIT.FOR/NOCONCURRENT
_Remark: no more changes, other than those already discussed
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, element DISKX:[PROJECT.CMSLIB]INIT.FOR modified
This example sets the element INIT.FOR to NOCONCURRENT access.
This means that only one person can reserve the element at a
time.
(2) CMS> MODIFY ELEMENT/REVIEW EXAMPLE.SDML
_Remark: team should review all changes before performing build
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, element DISKX:[PROJECT.CMSLIB]EXAMPLE.SDML modified
This example marks the latest generation of the element
EXAMPLE.SDML for review, and adds it to the review pending
list. To display what generations are pending review, use the
SHOW REVIEWS_PENDING command.
3 – GENERATION
Changes the characteristics of a specified generation or
generations.
Format:
MODIFY GENERATION element-expression /qualifier "remark"
3.1 – Restrictions
o You must specify one of the following qualifiers: /GENERATION
or /REMARK.
3.2 – Command Parameters
element-expression
Specifies one or more elements whose generations are to be
modified. 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. Note that this parameter
and the string on the /REMARK qualifier are unrelated.
3.3 – Description
The MODIFY GENERATION command changes the remark that is
associated with a particular generation of one or more
elements. Use the SHOW GENERATION command to display generation
characteristics.
This command does not change a generation's review status. See
the ACCEPT GENERATION, CANCEL GENERATION, MARK GENERATION, REJECT
GENERATION, and REVIEW GENERATION commands for more information.
3.4 – Qualifiers
3.4.1 /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.
3.4.2 /GENERATION[=generation-expression]
Specifies which generation of the element is to be modified. If
you omit /GENERATION, CMS modifies the most recent generation on
the main line of descent.
3.4.3 /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.
3.4.4 /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.
3.4.5 /REMARK="string"
Specifies a new remark to be substituted for the creation
(replacement) remark that is associated with the generation. This
qualifier is required.
3.5 – Example
CMS> MODIFY GENERATION/GENERATION=5/REMARK="Obsolete"
_Element expression: SPEC.TXT
_Remark: Marked obsolete
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, generation 5 modified
This command specifies a new remark to be substituted for the
creation remark of generation 5 of element SPEC.TXT. You must
also specify the element expression, and its associated remark,
which is logged in the history file.
4 – GROUP
Changes the characteristics of the specified group or groups.
Format:
MODIFY GROUP group-expression /qualifier "remark"
4.1 – Restrictions

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. Note that this parameter
and the string on the /REMARK qualifier are unrelated.
4.3 – Description
The MODIFY GROUP command changes the characteristics of one or
more groups. You can alter the following characteristics:
o The name of the group.
o The access to the group (READ_ONLY or NOREAD_ONLY). You cannot
change the contents of a group that has been set READ_ONLY.
o The creation remark that is associated with the group.
Use the SHOW GROUP command to display group characteristics.
4.4 – Qualifiers
4.4.1 /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.
4.4.2 /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.
4.4.3 /NAME=group-name
Specifies the new name for the group. You cannot change the
name of a group that has been set to READ_ONLY. The new group
name cannot be the same as an existing group or class name.
Wildcards and comma lists are not allowed. If you specify the
/NAME qualifier, you cannot use wildcards or a comma list in the
group name parameter, nor can you use a wildcard for the /NAME
qualifier.
4.4.4 /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 GROUP
GROUP (D)
NOGROUP
NONE--equivalent to NOGROUP
You can specify either ALL, NONE, or the [NO]GROUP keyword.
By default, CMS performs occlusion for all objects; that is, CMS
selects only the first occurrence of a specified object.
4.4.5 /READ_ONLY
4.4.6 /NOREAD_ONLY
Establishes or alters the read-only attribute of a group. To
change the characteristics of a READ_ONLY group, you must set
the class to NOREAD_ONLY. NOREAD_ONLY is the default attribute of
a group when it is created with the CREATE GROUP command.
4.4.7 /REMARK="string"
Specifies a new remark to be substituted for the creation remark
that is associated with the group.
4.5 – Example
CMS> MODIFY GROUP TESTS/READ_ONLY "coordinate before changing
contents"
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, group DISKX:[PROJECT.CMSLIB]TESTS modified
This command sets the group TESTS to READ_ONLY. Once the group
is set to READ_ONLY, the contents cannot be changed.
5 – LIBRARY
Establishes or removes the connection between the current CMS
library and a reference copy directory.
Format:
MODIFY LIBRARY /qualifier "remark"
5.1 – Command Parameters
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.
5.2 – Description
The MODIFY LIBRARY command establishes or removes the connection
between the current CMS library and a reference copy directory.
The reference copy directory cannot be a CMS library. This command
does not add files to or delete any files from a reference
copy directory. Once you establish a reference copy directory
for a library, subsequent transactions that create new element
generations on the main line of descent also update the reference
copy directory (provided the element is set to /REFERENCE_COPY).
You must use the MODIFY ELEMENT/NOREFERENCE_COPY command on
the elements in the library before you can use the MODIFY
LIBRARY/NOREFERENCE_COPY command.
If you specify MODIFY LIBRARY/REFERENCE_COPY and the reference
copy directory is already set, CMS first verifies all the files
found in that directory. The contents of the directory must
exactly correspond with the elements that have /REFERENCE_COPY
set in the CMS library. If elements are set with /NOREFERENCE_
COPY and there are existing reference copies for those elements,
CMS advises you to use VERIFY/REPAIR. No further operations are
allowed until the reference copies have been repaired.
Use the SHOW LIBRARY command to display library characteristics.
5.3 – Qualifiers
5.3.1 /CONCURRENT (D)
Specifies whether elements in a library can have multiple
reservations by setting the concurrent attribute on the library.
Use /NOCONCURRENT to disallow multiple reservations. If this
qualifier is not specified the status of this attribute remains
unchanged.
5.3.2 /EXTENDED_FILENAMES
Change the attribute of a CMS library to allow the use of extended
file names. This qualifier is only available on OpenVMS V7.2 and
later. Use /NOEXTENDED_FILENAMES to change the attribute to disallow
the use of extended file names. If this qualifier is not specified
the status of this attribute remains unchanged.
5.3.3 /KEEP
Instructs CMS to not delete all versions of a file used to create
a new element or generation. If this qualifier is not specified
the status of this attribute remains unchanged.
5.3.4 /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.
5.3.5 /LONG_VARIANT_NAMES
Change the attribute of a CMS library to allow the use of long
variant names. Use /NOLONG_VARIANT_NAMES to change the attribute
to disallow the use of long variant names. If this qualifier is
not specified the status of this attribute remains unchanged.
5.3.6 /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 OTHER
OTHER (D)
NOOTHER
NONE--equivalent to NOOTHER
You can specify either ALL, NONE, or the [NO]OTHER keyword.
By default, CMS performs occlusion for all objects; that is, CMS
selects only the first occurrence of a specified object.
5.3.7 /REFERENCE_COPY=directory-specification
Specifies a valid OpenVMS directory to be used for reference copies
of library elements. The directory cannot be a CMS library, nor
can it be a subdirectory of a CMS library directory. If you use
the MODIFY LIBRARY command on a search list consisting of more
than one library, you should specify a reference copy directory
for each library in the search list. If you specify only one
reference copy directory for more than one library, CMS uses one
reference copy directory for the entire search list, not one
reference copy directory for each library in the search list.
Use the /NOREFERENCE_COPY qualifier to remove the connection
between the current CMS library and the current reference copy
directory. Wildcards are not allowed.
5.3.8 /REVISION_TIME[=option]
Controls whether CMS uses the original file revision time or the
file storage time when a file is retrieved from the CMS library.
The options field can contain of the following keywords:
ORIGINAL (D)
STORAGE_TIME
Use the keyword ORIGINAL to indicate that the original revision
time of files placed in a CMS library should be restored unchanged
upon their retrieval. This is the default behavior.
Use the keyword STORAGE_TIME to indicate that the time when a file
was stored in a CMS library (through a CREATE ELEMENT or REPLACE
transaction) should be substituted for its original revision time
upon retrieval.
5.4 – Example
CMS> MODIFY LIBRARY/REFERENCE_COPY=[WORK.REFCOPY] "current
test area"
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, library [WORK.CODELIB] modified
This command establishes the reference copy directory
[WORK.REFCOPY] for the current CMS library. In addition, to
update the reference copy directory, an element must be set to
/REFERENCE_COPY. Thus, if these two conditions are met, each
transaction that creates a new main line element generation
also updates the reference copy directory.
6 – RESERVATION
Changes the characteristics of a specified reservation.
Format:
MODIFY RESERVATION element-expression /qualifier "remark"
6.1 – Restrictions
o You must specify the following qualifier: /REMARK.
6.2 – Command Parameters
element-expression
Specifies one or more elements whose reservation reservations are
to be modified. 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. Note that this parameter
and the string on the /REMARK qualifier are unrelated.
6.3 – Description
The MODIFY RESERVATION command changes the remark that is
associated with a particular reservation of one or more
elements. Use the SHOW RESERVATIIONS command to display
reservation characteristics.
6.4 – Qualifiers
6.4.1 /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.
6.4.2 /GENERATION[=generation-expression]
Specifies which reserved generation of the element is to be
modified. If you have more than one reservation of the same
element generation, you must use the /IDENTIFICATION_NUMBER
qualifier to identify the reservation.
6.4.3 /IDENTIFICATION_NUMBER=n
Specifies which reservation is to be modified. This qualifier
is required when you have multiple reservations of the same
generation of an element. /IDENTIFICATION_NUMBER can be used
instead of /GENERATION when you have multiple reservations. Use
the SHOW RESERVATIONS command to determine the identification
number of each reservation. The identification number appears
before the user name.
6.4.4 /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.
6.4.5 /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.
6.4.6 /REMARK="string"
Specifies a new remark to be substituted for the remark that is
associated with the reservation. This qualifier is required.
6.5 – Example
CMS> MODIFY RESERVATION/GENERATION=5/REMARK="Add new feature"
_Element expression: SPEC.TXT
_Remark: Modify the reservation remark
%CMS-S-MODIFIED, reservation SPEC.TXT modified
This command specifies a new remark to be substituted for the
reservation remark that was specified when generation 5 of
element SPEC.TXT was reserved. You must also specify the element
expression, and its associated remark, which is logged in the
history file.
