System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown Reference Manual (32650-90892)

Chapter 4 105
Using the System Generator (SYSGEN)
Confirming Potentially Serious Actions
sysgen>PERMYES ON
To disable PERMYES, enter PERMYES OFF at the SYSGEN prompt:
sysgen>PERMYES OFF
Once PERMYES is disabled, SYSGEN issues messages to prompt for confirmation. Example
4-4 demonstrates PERMYES OFF action.
NOTE PERMYES should always be set ON in command files to allow SYSGEN to
continue where confirmation would be requested.
