The SET PROFILE command modifies process attributes for
    the current management environment. After considering the
    privilege requirements of commands that you intend to use in
    an environment, you can add or delete current privileges, if
    they are authorized. You can also set a new default device and
    directory, as well as use the SET PROFILE/[NO]VERIFY command to
    control DCL command verification in SYSMAN. Other attributes of
    your process remain constant. The profile is in effect until you
    change it, reset the environment, or exit from SYSMAN. The VSI
    OpenVMS System Manager's Manual discusses profile changes in more
    detail.
