/[no]confirm or -[no]confirm
CONFIRM requests that the user be prompted prior to any operation to verify that the selected entry is the correct one.
/hostname or -node =hostname
The qualifier specifies what node (either local or remote) you want the operation performed on.
/distribution or -distribution
The "DISTRIBUTION list" is a list of PRINT commands to be issued. The idea is to provide a central mechanism for maintaining the how many, where to, and what printer information in a common location separate from the job command stream.
/endactions or -endactions
The ENDACTIONS listing is a list of resource adjustments that are to be run upon completion of the job.
/holds_up or -holds_up
The "HOLDS_UP list" is a list of jobs that are held up by the job being edited.
/initiates or -initiates
The "INITIATES list" is the list of other jobs to start up when this one completes successfully.
/[no]log or -[no]log
The LOG qualifier causes each completed operation to issue a note to the user.
/[no]check or -[no]check
The NOCHECK qualifier disables the CHECK whether or not a provided prerequisite or initiate list makes references to any non-existent jobs.
/notices or -notices
The "NOTICES list" is a free format text entry that is used by the NOTIFICATION procedure to augment the various messages that it sends.
/prerequisites or -prerequisites
The "PREREQUISITES list" is the list of other jobs that must be successfully completed before this one is started.
/resources or -resources
Edits a list of generalized resources. The resource list is where the bulk of advanced job programming occurs. Here IF-THEN or SET statements are processed that can check or alter the value of a variable, supress a job run or cause a wait to occur.
