Updating the Sequence Number for a Client Option

You can update the sequence number for a client option to change its processing order. This is helpful if you have more than one of the same option, for example several INCLUDE options.

The following example shows how to change the sequence number for the DATEFORMAT option from 0 to 9:

update clientopt engbackup dateformat 0 9

Deleting an Option from a Client Option Set

You can remove an option that is defined in a client option set. The following example shows how to remove the SCHEDMODE polling option from the financeschd option set:

delete clientopt financeschd schedmode

Copying a Client Option Set

You can copy an existing client option to another option set. The following example shows how to copy the engbackup option set to financeschd option set:

copy cloptset engbackup financeschd

Requesting Information about a Client Option Set

To display information about the contents of a client option set, issue the following command:

query cloptset financeschd

Updating the Description for a Client Option Set

You can update the description for a client option set. The following example shows how to update the description for the engbackup option set:

update clopset engbackup description='Scheduling information'

Deleting a Client Option Set

When you delete a client option set, client node references to the option set are null. The clients continue to use their existing client options file. The following example shows how to delete the engbackup client option set:

delete cloptset engbackup
