Except for the REPLACE parameter on an ADD
resource command and the ADDIFNEW parameter on an UPDATE
resource command, none of the other parameters have defaults.
If you omit a parameter from an ADD
resource or
UPDATE
resource command, the
file maintenance utility takes the
value for a missing parameter as follows:
- If you omit a parameter from an ADD FILE, ADD PROGRAM, ADD TDQUEUE,
or ADD TRANSID command, the file maintenance utility derives the missing parameter value
from the $Default record on the CICS control file for the object type.
There is no action for ADD GROUP and ADD LIST commands because these
objects do not have a $Default record.
- If you omit a parameter from an UPDATE command, the value in the
existing record is unchanged.
