/VMS_COMMAND=vms_command

Specifies an OpenVMS command to use for this job run only. The OpenVMS command overrides the original command in the database. For example: /VMS_COMMAND="@WEEKLY-COPY.COM." The maximum command length is 1024 characters.

When the job completes, the manager replaces this OpenVMS command with the original command.

Note: When using SCHED RUN/VMS_COMMAND= to run a job with temporary overrides, the temporary VMS_command is not used if the job fails and is retried. The original VMS_command will be used when the job is retried.
