Qualifiers

/check or -check

Workgroup Calendars Only. The CHECK option displays the designated object's status on the nodes in the current workgroup. Any differences are displayed as:

<node_name>: different

Adding the -log qualifier displays the specific differences between the object(s) on specific nodes.

/columns or -columns=number

The COLUMNS qualifier specifies how many columns to use when listing just the item name. The default is four columns.

/hostname or -node =hostname

The qualifier specifies what node (either local or remote) you want the operation performed on.

/full or -full

The FULL options displays all known information about a directory entry.

/noheading or -noheading

The NOHEADING removes the heading information from the directory listing.

/notrailing or -notrailing

The NOTRAILING removes the trailing information from the directory listing.

/output or -output=output_file

The OUTPUT option sends all output to a text file. Output can be printed or displayed as needed.

/owner or -owner

The OWNER qualifier displays the owner UIC code for the job.

/protection or -protection
/security or -security

The SECURITY option is the same as specifying the /acl, /owner or -owner and /protection or -protection qualifiers.

/symbol or -symbol[=prefix_string] or [=(prefix string,format)]

The SYMBOL requests that all directory information be output to a group of environmental variables. Every field in the control record is loaded into a single environmental variable. The symbol name is constructed by prefixing the field name with the provide string. If none is provided a default value of SG is used.

The format defines the way that symbols are output. The default output specification is: "$ %s=\" %s\" "" which produces the following format style.

SG_ACCOUNT = "DEVELOPM"

Alternate output styles may be created by changing the format field.
