VMS Help CMS, MODIFY, CLASS, Qualifiers  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

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.

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.

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.

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.

5 - /READ_ONLY

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.

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.
