Managing client option sets

Administrators can perform several activities to manage client option sets.

Perform the following steps:

1. Update the sequence number for a client option.

   You can update the sequence number for a client option to change its processing order. This is helpful if you have more than one of the same option, for example several INCLUDE options.

   The following command shows you how to change the sequence number for the DATEFORMAT option from 0 to 9:

   update clientopt engbackup dateformat 0 9

2. Delete an option from a client option set.

   You can remove an option that is defined in a client option set.

   The following example shows you how to remove the SCHEDMODE polling option from the financeschd option set:

   delete clientopt financeschd schedmode

3. Copy a client option set. You can copy an existing client option to another option set.

   The following example shows you how to copy the engbackup option set to financeschd option set:

   copy cloptset engbackup financeschd

4. Request information about a client option set. To display information about the contents of a client option set, issue the following command:

   query cloptset financeschd

5. Update the description for a client option set. You can update the description for a client option set. The following example shows you how to update the description for the engbackup option set:

   update clopset engbackup description='Scheduling information'

6. Delete a client option set. When you delete a client option set, client node references to the option set are null. The clients continue to use their existing client options file. The following example shows you how to delete the engbackup client option set:

   delete cloptset engbackup
