Before you begin: Before clearing a master session from the coupled HOLD status, you must follow the procedure described in Restarting an inactive XRC coupled session.
Attention: After you have issued the XCOUPLE command with either the RELEASE, DELETE, or PURGE parameter, data for the specified session may not be consistent with the other sessions in the master session.
Clear the coupled HOLD status of a master session with one of the methods listed in Table 1.
