Qualifiers

-B[LOCK]=block_number

Specifies the block to restore.

On commands with no -BLOCK= qualifier, DSE uses the last block handled by a DSE operation. When no block has been accessed, that is, on the first block-oriented command, DSE uses block one (1).

-C[OMMENT]=string

Specifies a comment to save with the block. Enclose the comment in quotation marks (" "). The -COMMENT qualifier is incompatible with the -LIST qualifier.

-L[IST]

Lists saved versions of specified blocks. The -LIST qualifier is incompatible with the -COMMENT qualifier.

By default, SAVE -LIST provides a directory of all SAVEd blocks.

-[NO]C[RIT]

Allows DSE SAVE to work even if another process is holding a critical section. Since results in this mode may be inconsistent, it should only be used if the critical section mechanism is not operating normally.
