4. Class G users can change files they own or have created from their primary or
alternate IDs.
5. If you use CHANGE to transfer a file to another user and you do not specify a
distribution code, the distribution code is set to the receiving user’s default
distribution.
6. Although you can specify the CHANGE options of FLASH, FCB, MODIFY,
CHARS, and COPY * nnn for any spool file or files, they lead to system action
only when a spool file with these attributes is printed on a CP-driven 3800
printer.
7. A user can cancel settings of the CHARS, MODIFY, or FCB options by
specifying NULL in the name fields of these operands. In this case, NULL
performs the same function as OFF.
8. The keyword OFF, which resets attributes to their default values, cannot also
be used to specify a FORM, FLASH, FCB, MODIFY, DISTcode, or CHARS
name. Similarly, you cannot use NULL to specify a CHARS, MODIFY, or FCB
name.
9. If the NORETURN option was specified when the file was created by
DIAGNOSE X'94', the originator of the file cannot retrieve that file from the
current owner. If you try, the following message is issued:
FILE NOT CHANGED;
FILE CREATED WITH THE NORETURN OPTION
10. When a file changes ownership, the spool file ID number also changes. The
new number comes from the recipient’s pool of available IDs. Thus, if user
DORA uses the CHANGE command to send file #3 to user LILA, DORA gets
the response:
RDR FILE 0003 SENT TO LILA
RDR WAS 0018 RECS 1000 CPY
001 A NOHOLD NOKEEP
LILA now has file #18.
11. Most of the CHANGE command options which are valid for reader, printer, or
punch files are not valid for system trace files (TRFILES). Refer to the
CHANGE: OPTIONS syntax diagram above for the options which are valid for
system trace files.
12. System trace files (TRFILES) may only be changed from one user’s TRFILES
queue to another user’s TRFILES queue. Only system trace files may be
changed to a TRFILES queue.
13. The SYS option puts a file in system hold and NOSYS releases the file from
system hold. The SYS and NOSYS can be used in addition to HOLD and
NOHOLD.
