ALTER SYNCFILESET
This option overrides the BACKUP option specified in the ADD SYNCUSER or 
ALTER SYNCUSER command.
If BACKUP is omitted, $SYSTEM.SYSnn.BACKUP is used.
CATALOG SQL-catalog | NO CATALOG
where to register SQL objects that are synchronized. If CATALOG is omitted, 
the source catalog name is used.
If the needed catalog does not exist and AUTOCREATECATALOG is not 
specified, SQL table synchronization fails.   
COMPRESS | NO COMPRESS
enables or disables compression of the file set prior to being sent to the 
destination system.
This option overrides the global parameter [AUTO]SYNCCOMPRESS.
KEEPNOPURGEUNTIL | NO KEEPNOPURGEUNTIL
specifies that the NOPURGEUNTIL attribute of a source SQL table or 
alternate index is preserved (or not preserved) on the destination. If 
KEEPNOPURGEUNTIL is specified, no further synchronization will be  
successful until the NOPURGEUNTIL period has elapsed.
The default is NO KEEPNOPURGEUNTIL. Unless KE EPN OP UR GEU NT IL is 
specified, AutoSYNC does not propagate the NOPURGEUNTIL attribute to 
the destination table, to insure that future synchronizations will be possible.
KEEPNOPURGEUNTIL is not supported for Enscribe files, consistent with 
FUP and RESTORE behavior.
MAPNAMES mapnames-file | NO MAPNAMES
specifies the mapping of a source fileset to a destination fileset and catalog 
name mapping.
The mapnames-file is an edit or entry-sequenced file located on the destination 
system. 
File name mapping:
The mapnames-file entries are similar to, but not exactly the same as, the 
MAP NAMES option of RESTORE. Each line of the MAPNAMES file 
contains a single mapping of the form. 
Note. Compression is CPU-intensive and can reduce total throughput unless the 
connection between source and destination systems is slow.
