Qualifiers

/AFTER[=generation-expression]
   Specifies the start of a range of generations that are to be
   deleted, excluding the specified generation. You cannot specify
   both /AFTER and /FROM or both /AFTER and /GENERATION. You must
   specify the end of the range with either the /BEFORE or /TO
   qualifier.

/ARCHIVE=[file-specification]
   Specifies a file to which CMS writes archived generation
   information. If the file specification is omitted, CMS creates
   a file for each with the same name as the element and the .CMS_
   ARCHIVE file type and places it in your default directory.

/BEFORE[=generation-expression]
   Specifies the end of a range of generations that are to be
   deleted, excluding the specified generation. You cannot specify
   both /BEFORE and /TO or both /BEFORE and /GENERATION. You must
   specify the start of the range with either the /AFTER or /FROM
   qualifier.

/CONFIRM (D)
   Controls whether CMS prompts you for confirmation before each
   transaction.

   When you 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 or QUIT or press RETURN, 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.

/FROM[=generation-expression]
   Specifies the start of a range of generations that are to be
   deleted, including the specified generation. You cannot specify
   both /FROM and /AFTER or both /FROM and /GENERATION. You must
   specify the end of the range with either the /BEFORE or /TO
   qualifier.

/GENERATION[=generation-expression]
   Specifies a particular generation of the element to be deleted. By
   default, the most recent generation on the main line of descent is
   deleted. You cannot combine /GENERATION with any of the following
   qualifiers: /FROM, /TO, /AFTER, and /BEFORE.

/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.

/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
      ELEMENT (D)
      NOELEMENT
      NONE--equivalent to NOELEMENT

   You can specify either ALL, NONE, or the [NO]ELEMENT keyword.

   By default, CMS performs occlusion for all objects; that is, CMS
   selects only the first occurrence of a specified object.

/TO[=generation-expression]
   Specifies the end of a range of generations that are to be
   deleted, including the specified generation. You cannot specify
   both /TO and /BEFORE or both /TO and /GENERATION. You must specify
   the start of the range with either the /AFTER or /FROM qualifier.
