If you are trying to define a client schedule where the OPTIONS includes
the client -OPTFILE option, then that is not valid. -OPTFILE is valid only
when launching the client, i.e. "dsmc -optfile=dsm.opt.alt"

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
