Parameters

Keyword Description Choices Notes
CRQD Change request description Qualified object name Required, Positional 1
Qualifier 1: Change request description Generic name, name
Qualifier 2: Library Name, *LIBL, *CURLIB, *USRLIBL, *ALL, *ALLUSR

Change request description (CRQD)

Specifies the name and the library of the change request description to delete.

The possible values are:

Qualifier 2: Library

*LIBL
All libraries in the library list for the current thread are searched until the first match is found.
*CURLIB
The current library for the thread is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the thread, the QGPL library is searched.
*USRLIBL
If a current library entry exists in the library list for the current thread, the current library and the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched. If there is no current library entry, only the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched.
*ALLUSR
All user libraries are searched. All libraries with names that do not begin with the letter Q are searched except for the following:

#CGULIB     #DSULIB     #SEULIB
#COBLIB     #RPGLIB
#DFULIB     #SDALIB

Although the following Qxxx libraries are provided by IBM, they typically contain user data that changes frequently. Therefore, these libraries are considered user libraries and are also searched:

QDSNX       QRCLxxxxx   QUSRDIRDB   QUSRVI
QGPL        QSRVAGT     QUSRIJS     QUSRVxRxMx
QGPL38      QSYS2       QUSRINFSKR
QMGTC       QSYS2xxxxx  QUSRNOTES
QMGTC2      QS36F       QUSROND
QMPGDATA    QUSER38     QUSRPOSGS
QMQMDATA    QUSRADSM    QUSRPOSSA
QMQMPROC    QUSRBRM     QUSRPYMSVR
QPFRDATA    QUSRDIRCF   QUSRRDARS
QRCL        QUSRDIRCL   QUSRSYS

  1. 'xxxxx' is the number of a primary auxiliary storage pool (ASP).
  2. A different library name, in the format QUSRVxRxMx, can be created by the user for each previous release supported by IBM to contain any user commands to be compiled in a CL program for the previous release. For the QUSRVxRxMx user library, VxRxMx is the version, release, and modification level of a previous release that IBM continues to support.
*ALL
All libraries in the system, including QSYS, are searched.
name
Specify the name of the library to be searched.
change-request-description-name
Specify the name of the change request description to be deleted.
generic*-change-request-description-name
Specify a generic change request description name. A generic name is a character string containing one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*). All change request descriptions with names that match or that begin with the specified string are deleted.

Examples

Example 1: Deleting a Change Request Description from Your Own Library

DLTCRQD   CRQD(MYLIB/CHG001)

This command deletes a change request description in MYLIB with the name CHG001.

Example 2: Deleting Change Request Descriptions Using a Generic Name

DLTCRQD   CRQD(*LIBL/CHG*)

This command deletes all the change request descriptions in the library list whose names start with CHG.

Example 3: Deleting a Change Request Description from the Current Library

DLTCRQD   CRQD(*CURLIB/CHG456)

This command deletes the change request description named CHG456 in the current library.
