• NAME, specifies the catalog name. The catalog must be connected to the master catalog.
• NOINDEXTEST, specifies that the index component is not to be examined.
• DATATEST, causes the data component to be examined.
• ERRORLIMIT(1000), restricts the printing of detailed error messages to 1000 errors.
