/EXERCISE=(FULL,[NO]KEEP,PATTERN)
/NOEXERCISE (default)
Controls whether the media should actually be tested. You can
update the DBBF without erasing the contents of the volume by
using the /NOEXERCISE qualifier along with the /BAD_BLOCKS
qualifier.
Qualifier Keywords
FULL
Causes BAD to test the media using three test patterns (0s,
1s, and "worst case") instead of the default single "worst
case" pattern. The FULL keyword can be used only with
/EXERCISE. Note that the "worst case" test pattern always
remains on media tested with the /EXERCISE qualifier.
KEEP
Ensures the preservation of the current software detected bad
block file (SDBBF). The keep keyword is the default when
/NOEXERCISE is specified.
NOKEEP
Causes BAD to create a new SDBBF. The NOKEEP keyword is the
default when /EXERCISE is specified. This keyword cannot be
used with the /NOEXERCISE qualifier.
PATTERN=(value[,...])
Allows users to specify the value of a test pattern to be
used as "worst case". Up to an octaword of test pattern
data may be specified in decimal (%D), hexadecimal (%X),
or octal (%O) radixes. The default radix is decimal.
The pattern is specified in longwords. If two or more
longwords are specified, they must be enclosed in
parentheses and separated by commas.
