TM Control Statement

The TM control statement is used to verify bit values in FLAG1, FLAG2, FLAG3 or FLAG4. This control statement is optional. If the TM control statement is coded, the TM value must be verified in the flag field for the volume record to be updated by the OI or NI instructions. The format for the TM statement is:

TM FLAGx=value
