Override Keywords

Process overrides allow you to modify certain parameters when running one or more processes from the command line.

The following guidelines apply:

• You can specify process overrides in an override file, or as part of a parameter file.
• An override file includes only the overrides, each on a separate line.
• When overrides are specified for a process defined in a parameter file, the command-line keyword indicating that overrides are used (OV) must follow other command-line keywords and precede the override parameters.
• In a parameter file, the argument for the OV command-line keyword can be a text file name (OV=overridefilename) or an asterisk (OV=*). An asterisk indicates that override parameters follow. The first override (keyword and associated argument) must begin on the following line, and each additional override must be on a separate line.
• The keyword END must be on a separate line following the last override when overrides are specified in a parameter file using OV=*.
