AILDELAY
The AILDELAY parameter specifies the delay period that elapses after all sessions between CICS and an autoinstalled terminal, APPC device, or APPC system are ended, before the terminal or connection entry is deleted.
- AILDELAY={0|hhmmss}
- All sessions are ended when the terminal or system logs off, or when a
transaction disconnects it from CICS. The AILDELAY parameter does not apply to the following types of autoinstalled APPC connection, which are not deleted:
- Sync level 2-capable connections (for example, CICS-to-CICS connections)
- Sync level 1-only, limited resource connections installed on a CICS that is a member of a generic resource group
- hhmmss
- A 1 to 6-digit number. The default is 0. For non-LU6.2 terminals and LU6.2
single-session connections installed by a CINIT, 0 means that the terminal
entry is deleted as soon as the session is ended. For LU6.2 connections installed
by a BIND, 0 means that the connection is deleted as soon as all sessions
are ended, but is reusable if a new BIND occurs before the deletion starts.
If you leave out the leading zeros, they are supplied (for example, 123 becomes 000123—that is, 1 minute 23 seconds).
