The SET SHADOW command and its qualifiers are designed to give
the user greater control over the behavior of shadow sets. These
commands act upon the shadow set (also known as the virtual unit)
or, in some cases, on the individual shadow set member that you
specify.
Unless otherwise noted, the qualifier settings typically remain
in effect until they are changed using either the SET SHADOW
or SET DEVICE command or until the shadow set or shadow set
member is dismounted. If the shadow set is remounted or a shadow
set member is returned to the shadow set from which it was
dismounted, the settings must be specified again.
Some SET SHADOW qualifiers also can be specified using the SET
DEVICE command, where they have the same effect. However, if
your focus is on changing characteristics of shadow sets, the SET
SHADOW command provides more options.
