Description

The OVERRIDE command locks the VOL1 label on the SYSRES volume and executes the CMS OVERRIDE command. After the command has run, CA VM:Director releases the lock and continues processing.

CLEAR: Alters the privilege class structure to the IBM‑defined user classes.
DEFER: Defers the changes in the class structure until the next time the system is IPLed.
IMMEDIATE: Changes the class structure immediately.
VALIDATE: Checks the class override file for syntax errors.

Note: For more information about the CMS OVERRIDE command, see the IBM CP Planning and Administration guide for your release of VM.
