The /Y used in the above line is for virtual machines - in some instances without this switch if a user switches from a dos box/app to windows and then back again the mouse will freeze - this switch is supposed to prevent this. This can also happen if a user can switch from DOS to a 3270 mode and toggle back again - same thing use the /Y switch to prevent the mouse freezing up.
