INFO TMF
INFO TMF
The INFO TMF command displays the configured attribute values of TMF.
CNFGFORM
formats the INFO TMF output as command file text that can be executed by
TMFCOM. TMF saves this output in the file designated by the OUT option
available with all commands. Subsequently executing this command file produces
a running system that exactly matches your present TMF configuration. The use of
the OUT option and command file execution are described under Directing Output
to an Alternate Destination on page 2-8.
Before deleting your current TMF configuration, use the CNFGFORM option to
capture this configuration in the command file. Then, you can confidently re-create
that configuration at any time thereafter. The command file will contain all
TMFCOM commands needed to reconfigure and start TMF, including the
appropriate STOP TMF and START TMF commands.
OBEYFORM
formats INFO TMF output as command file text that can be executed by TMFCOM.
TMF saves this output in the file designated by the OUT option available with all
commands. After also directing INFO DATAVOLS, OBEYFORM and INFO
PROCESS, OBEYFORM output to this command file, subsequently executing the
file produces a new TMF configuration that exactly matches the existing
configuration. OUT option use and command file execution are described in
Directing Output to an Alternate Destination on page 2-8.
In the INFO TMF command, the OBEYFORM option is an older feature than the
CNFGFORM option. CNFGFORM provides a faster and easier alternative to the
OBEYFORM option. Currently, OBEYFORM is most commonly used to provide
permanent copies of existing configurations for informative purposes.
Security Restrictions
Anyone can enter the INFO TMF command.

Note. When you specify CNFGFORM, TMF does not write the MaxRetainedATFiles field
to the INFO TMF output because this value is only used temporarily during volume
recovery or file recovery.
Note. When you specify OBEYFORM, TMF does not write the MaxRetainedATFiles
