ALTER AUDITDUMP
If the audit dump process fails while making serial copies, completed copies 
are kept in the catalog. When the audit dump process resumes, the number of 
completed copies is subtracted from the number of copies specified to 
determine the number of copies remaining to be made.
The originally assigned default is COPIES 1 PARALLEL, which produces one copy, 
starting with the next tape dump operation.
RESET COPIES
for dumps to tape, resets the COPIES setting to the originally assigned default, 
COPIES 1 PARALLEL, which produces one copy, starting with the next tape dump 
operation.
SYSTEM
for dumps to tape, specifies the node (system) on which all tape copies are made. 
If you specify a remote node, Guardian labeled-tape processing must be enabled 
on that node and must be running on the NonStop Kernel operating system. TMF, 
however, need not be configured or running on the remote node. The syntax rules 
for specifying a node name appear under Disk File Names, earlier in this section. 
Specifying two nodes produces parallel copies of tapes, one copy per node. 
Whether they are produced locally or remotely, the tapes used are registered in the 
local TMF catalog. 
The originally assigned default is the local node.
RESET SYSTEM
for dumps to tape, resets the node on which tape copies are made to the originally 
assigned default, which is the local node.
VERIFYTAPE
for dumps to tape, determines whether tape verification is performed after a tape is 
written.
OFF
suppresses verification of tape volumes. 
ON
performs tape verification. After each tape volume has been written, it is 
rewound, read completely, and rewound again, and unloaded. The tape-record 
checksums, tape-record sequence numbers, and tape format are verified. The 
checks are the same as those made during file recovery; however, tape 
verification does not include comparing the tape data to the audit-trail files on 
disk.
