The resulting display appears in this format:

In the above example, the generic node name \* specified for the HOMETERM,
PROGRAM, and VOLUME attribute values indicates that node name for these
attributes will default to the node where the PATHMON process is currently running.
In Capturing a Configuration on page 5-21 you will see how the INFO command can be
used to create OBEYFORM files that contain all the definitions for your complete
PATHMON environment. These files can be used as a basis for starting operations.
Using Existing Object Attributes for New Objects
You can use object definitions recorded in the PATHMON configuration file as the
basis for defining values in the PATHCOM working set. For example, suppose that you
want to add a new SERVER object named JACK, using the same attributes that
applied to the SERVER named ANNA (except for the TMF attribute). You could do this
by using the SET command with the LIKE option, as follows:
= SET SERVER LIKE ANNA
= ADD SERVER JACK, TMF ON
The LIKE option requests PATHCOM to set the working-set values exactly the same
as those for the attributes of the object whose name follows LIKE. This feature is
useful for defining and adding multiple objects of the same kind with similar definitions.
For example, when specifying multiple SERVER objects, you need enter only those
attributes that are different from those of a previously added SERVER. Alternatively,
you can define a SERVER that is exactly like a previously added SERVER.
