DISCARD PIPELINE

Remove a PIPELINE definition.

Syntax

Warning: System commands are powerful as they provide information about the state of the system and allow changes to be made to it. System commands should be used only by authorized applications and users.

Activate security checks on commands by specifying the XCMD system initialization parameter and by ensuring that command security checking is active for the transaction (either by specifying CMDSEC(YES) on the TRANSACTION resource definition or by specifying ALWAYS on the CMDSEC system initialization parameter).
