CEMT PERFORM DELETSHIPPED
Cause the CICS® timeout delete mechanism to be invoked immediately.
In the CICS Explorer, the Regions view provides a functional equivalent to this command.
Description
The CICS timeout delete mechanism removes any shipped terminal definitions that have not been used for longer than the time specified on the DSHIPIDL system initialization parameter, or on a subsequent SET DELETSHIPPED IDLE command. The interval between scheduled invocations of the mechanism is specified on the DSHIPINT system initialization parameter, or on a subsequent SET DELETSHIPPED INTERVAL command.
PERFORM
DELETSHIPPED invokes timeout delete immediately.
Note:
- Shipped definitions are not deleted if there is an automatic initiate descriptor (AID) associated with the terminal.
- Issuing a PERFORM DELETSHIPPED command does not reset the start of the time interval until the next invocation of the timeout delete mechanism. In other words, causing the timeout delete mechanism to be invoked immediately does not affect the time remaining until the next scheduled invocation.
