Command Syntax

command also restores all parameters displayed by the ENV command to their default
values.

Command Syntax

SDRCOM is a conversational-mode program. Most commands are single-line
commands and are terminated by the end of line; such commands can be continued by
placing an ampersand (&) at the end of the line.

Alternatively, if you wish to enter several commands on a single line, or if you do not
wish to use a continuation character to enter long commands, you can choose to use a
semicolon (;) to terminate each command. To use (or reset) the (;) as a termination
character, use the SEMICOLON command.

Commands are free-format: spaces are not significant except within character strings.
The commands are not case-sensitive.

Guardian defines can be used to specify command parameters:

CLASS MAP defines to specify parameters that designate files or tables

CLASS CATALOG defines to specify command parameters that designate
subvolumes
