UPDATE Command
Use the UPDATE command to modify object attributes in the DSNM object database
that control:
Whether or not an object is monitored when it appears on the NetStatus display
What states cause an object to be highlighted on the NetStatus display
The UPDATE command returns a response for only those objects that are not
successfully updated.

objectspec
is the object specification. The syntax for the object specification is provided at the
beginning of this section. Detailed discussion of the object specification is
provided in Section 3, "Object Specifications."
hierarchy-modifier
determines which objects are affected by the command, based on the subsystem
object hierarchy:
ONLY
causes the command to affect the specified objects, but not
the objects that are subordinate to them.
SUBONLY
causes the command to affect the objects subordinate to the
specified objects, but not the specified objects themselves.
ALL
causes the command to affect both the specified objects and
their subordinate objects.
The default value is ALL. See Section 5, “Subsystems,” for information on how
individual subsystems interpret this modifier. See Section 4, "Modifiers," for
detailed information on the hierarchy modifier.
error-modifier
determines how much information is reported when the command is correct but
the objects against which the command is being executed produce errors. The
error modifier does not affect the command response for errors that result when a
command is entered incorrectly or when a name cannot be resolved.
