    Changes information associated with a startup file in the startup
    database.

    Requires read (R)  and write (W) access to the startup database.

    Format

      STARTUP MODIFY  FILE filespec

1  –  Parameters 

 FILE

    Modifies a record in the startup database. SYSMAN modifies
    STARTUP$STARTUP_LAYERED by default.

 filespec

    Selects a startup file for modification. Wildcard characters are
    accepted.

2  –  Qualifiers

2.1    /CONFIRM 

       /CONFIRM
       /NOCONFIRM (default)

    Controls whether the STARTUP MODIFY command displays the
    file specification of each file before modifying its startup
    characteristics in the startup data file and requests you to
    confirm that the file characteristics be modified. If you specify
    /CONFIRM, you must respond to the prompt with a Y (Yes) or a
    T (True) and press Return before the file is modified. If you
    enter anything else, such as N or No, the requested file is not
    modified.

2.2    /LOG 

       /LOG
       NOLOG (default)

    Controls whether the STARTUP MODIFY command displays the file
    specification of each file after its startup characteristics have
    been modified.

2.3    /MODE 

       /MODE=mode

    Changes the mode of execution for a startup file. Valid modes
    include DIRECT, SPAWN, BATCH, or ANY.

2.4    /NAME 

       /NAME=filespec

    Changes the name of the startup file. The file must reside in
    SYS$STARTUP.

2.5    /PARAMETER 

       /PARAMETER=(P1:arg1,P2:arg2,...,P8:arg8)

    Changes the parameters that are to be passed to the file during
    startup. Parameters that are omitted receive the default
    parameters defined by the system parameter STARTUP_Pn. If
    STARTUP_Pn is blank, "FULL" is used as parameter 1 (P1) and is
    passed by STARTUP.COM to each startup component file. If you want
    a blank P1 parameter given to a specific component file, use the
    command:

    SYSMAN> STARTUP MODIFY FILE component.com/PARAM=P1:""

2.6    /PHASE 

       /PHASE=phase-name

    Selects startup files for modification based on the phase in
    which they run. Valid phases include LPBEGIN, LPMAIN, LPBETA, and
    END. LPMAIN is the default.

3  –  Description 

    The STARTUP MODIFY command edits startup information associated
    with components in the startup database. For example, the command
    can rename a file or change the parameters that are passed
    to a file during startup. You can select a group of files for
    modification based on the phase in which they run.

4  –  Example 

  SYSMAN> STARTUP MODIFY FILE DECSET$ENVMGR_STARTUP.COM -
  _SYSMAN> /PARAM=(P3:TRUE,P4:FALSE) /CONFIRM

      This command changes two startup parameters for the command
      procedure DECSET$ENVMGR_STARTUP.COM.
