/VERIFY (D)
/NOVERIFY
Controls whether MMS displays action lines before executing
them. These qualifiers affect the behavior of MMS, but not the
execution of action lines.
The /VERIFY qualifier directs MMS to display each action line
before executing it. MMS writes action lines either to SYS$OUTPUT
or to a file you specify on the /OUTPUT qualifier.
If you specify the /REVISE_DATE qualifier in combination with the
/VERIFY qualifier, MMS displays the names of files whose dates
have been revised.
When you specify the /NOVERIFY qualifier, MMS suppresses the
display (but not the execution) of action lines. Any error
messages generated by the execution of action lines continue
to be displayed. If you specify the /REVISE_DATE and /NOVERIFY
qualifiers on the same command line, the names of files whose
dates have been revised are not displayed.
The behavior of the /NOVERIFY qualifier is identical to
that of the Silent action-line prefix and the .SILENT
directive. If a description file contains the .SILENT directive, to
override it you must type the /VERIFY qualifier explicitly on the
MMS command line. You cannot override the Silent action-line prefix
from the MMS command line.
