DISCARD TRANCLASS
Remove a transaction class definition.
Description
The DISCARD TRANCLASS command removes the definition of a transaction class from the local CICS system. A transaction class cannot be removed while any TRANSACTION definitions belong to it.
See Discarding resource definitions for general information about discards.
Options
- TRANCLASS(data-value)
- specifies
the 8-character name of the transaction class that is to be removed.
In earlier releases of CICS, transaction classes were numbered from 1 through 10 rather than named, as they are now, and class definitions were implicit rather than explicit. For compatibility, CICS supplies definitions for the numbered classes, named ‘DFHTCLnn’, where nn is the 2-digit class number. You can discard a numbered class by using the associated name for the TRANCLASS value (DFHTCL01 for class 1, for example).
