You can override some of the options in your dsm.sys file or client user-options file (dsm.opt) by entering them with appropriate backup-archive client commands.

The client processes options in the following order (precedence):

1. Options defined on the server with server-enforced client options. The server overrides client values.
2. Options entered locally on the command line.
3. Options defined on the server for a schedule using the options parameters.
4. Options entered locally in the options file.
5. Options received from the server with client option sets not set as forced by the server. The server does not override client values if not forced.
6. Default option values.
