ASSUME Command
ASSUME establishes a default object class so that the object class need not be
entered in each command that requires it. The object class specified in the ASSUME
command is used for subsequent RESET, SET, SHOW, ADD, INFO, ALTER, FREEZE,
THAW, and DELETE commands during the current session. You can assume a new
default object class at any time during the session.
After you specify a default object class, you can enter an object-management
command for the default object class without specifying the object class again.
ASSUME
entered with no object-type, establishes no default object class. If you omit
object class, you must specify an object class in all subsequent object-
management commands.
object-type
is the default object class assumed for any subsequent user-management or
object-management commands that do not include either USER or an object class.
For object-type, specify one of these:
ALIAS
DEVICE
DISKFILE
DISKFILE-PATTERN
EVENT-EXIT-PROCESS
PROCESS
SUBDEVICE
! Displays and executes a specified command that you previously entered
during the current session.
-- (two hyphens) Delimits comments in SAFECOM commands.
& (ampersand) Indicates that the command is continued on the next line.
