/ENABLE=(LOAD,PERM) /DISABLE=(LOAD,PERM) The /ENABLE and /DISABLE qualifiers allow you to disable or selectively enable automatic loading and automatic permanence for all non-permanent devices. The two qualifiers have these meanings: Qualifier Explanation /ENABLE Allows you to selectively enable automatic loading permanence. Automatic permanence is ignored if automatic loading is disabled. However, you can enable automatic loading and disable automatic permanence. This allows devices to be configured but does not add them to the permanent database. Also, the OpenVMS device name cannot be persistent. /DISABLE Allows you to disable device loading on a per-device basis. Explanations of the keywords LOAD and PERM are in the following table: KeyworTerm Explanation LOAD Automatic Allows the device to be automatically loading configured-that is, the device driver is loaded and an OpenVMS device is created for it. PERM Automatic Causes the UCM to add the device to the permanence permanent database. Once a device is added to the permanent database, each time it is connected to the system it will have the driver loaded and the device name will always remain the same-that is, it will be persistent. By default, automatic loading (LOAD) and automatic permanence (PERM) are enabled. Automatic permanence is ignored if automatic loading is disabled. However, you can enable automatic loading and disable automatic permanence. This allows devices to be configured but does not add them to the permanent database. (The OpenVMS device name might not be persistent in this case.)
