Use VERIFY to confirm that a location or several consecutive
locations contain the specified contents.
Generally, you should use the VERIFY command with the DEPOSIT
command. The DEPOSIT command does not confirm the entries before
overwriting them. Therefore, to make certain you know the
contents of the locations that will be modified, issue the VERIFY
command first.
The VERIFY command is also useful when you are patching an image
file by means of a command procedure. Using the VERIFY command,
you can check particular locations before attempting to modify
them. If the VERIFY command fails, that patch is not applied,
and PATCH skips to the next SET ECO command. If no other SET ECO
command exists, the command procedure is terminated.
Format:
VERIFY location = current-contents [,...]
