ADD SYNCFILESET
FROMO[WNER] user-id
instructs Autosync to synchronize only the source files owned by the specified 
user ID. By default the whole source fileset is synchronized, regardless of the 
ownership of the files, as long as security settings do not prevent it.
An OSS directory that is not owned by the specified owner is skipped, along 
with all its files and subdirectories, even if some of the subordinate files or 
subdirectories are owned by the specified user ID.
[IP]HOST[NAME] { tcpip-address | host-name }
(for synchronization over TCP/IP only)
address of the destination system specified as an internet address or the 
configured internet name of the host system.
tcpip-address is specified in the dotted decimal format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn 
(example: 16.107.164.200).
host-name is the name by which the destination system is known on the 
internet, specified as a character string of 49 or fewer characters (example: 
foxii.cac.cpqcorp.net).
There is no default value for this option. If HOST is omitted, AutoSYNC 
performs the synchronization over the Expand link.
INTERVAL interval [ MINUTES | HOURS | DAYS ]
the frequency at which the destination file set is to be updated. The value of 
interval is between 1 minute and 366 days. The default unit of time is the 
MINUTE. The default interval is 5 minutes.
The interval value is ignored if a START option is specified without a STOP 
option; then synchronization occurs once a day at START time.
Note that the interval is the time to delay from the completion of one 
synchronization until the start of the next synchronization.
KEEPB[ACKUPINFILE]
instructs AutoSYNC to retain the BACKUP and RESTORE input files. By 
default, these files are temporary and they are purged after the synchronization 
has completed.
This option is used for troubleshooting only. 
The name of the input file is in the format of ZBKnnnnn for BACKUP and 
ZRSnnnnn for RESTORE, where nnnnn is a serial number. The files are 
placed in the MapDB subvolume. The exact file name is displayed in the 
syncuser’s log file SLnnnggg.
Input files are not created if no files require synchronization. For BACKUP, the 
input file is always created when files are synchronized. For REST
ORE, the
