/AFTER={time} /AFTER={current_time} (default) /NOAFTER The /AFTER qualifier keeps the script from executing until after the specified time. You can specify time as either an absolute time or as a combination of absolute and delta times. For complete information on specifying time values, see the VMS DCL Concepts Manual. The /AFTER qualifier has three states. It can be specified with a valid time, it can be omitted from the command line, or it can be negated (/NOAFTER). If /AFTER is specified with a valid time, the script is scheduled to execute after that time. If the /AFTER qualifier is omitted, the defragmentation software processes the command as if the /AFTER qualifier were specified with the current time. If /NOAFTER is specified, no starting time is associated with the script being defined. The /NOAFTER qualifier allows you to define a script without scheduling it to execute. To subsequently start the script, use the START subcommand.
