The SET DELETSHIPPED command allows you to change values that control the timeout mechanism that CICS provides for deleting definitions of shipped terminals that are inactive. A shipped definition is inactive if the terminal has not been used locally for a specified period of time and no task that requires the terminal is waiting to be attached. For more information about shipped definitions, see the CICS® Intercommunication Guide and the CICS Resource Definition Guide.
You can change both the length of time a shipped terminal must remain inactive before being eligible for deletion (IDLE time), and the interval at which CICS checks for such terminals (the INTERVAL). Time values can be expressed in several different ways:
For example, to specify an IDLE time of 1 hour and 15 minutes, you could use any of the following:
See the notes at the beginning of this command description for the range of values allowed.
When you change the checking interval, the next interval is measured from the time the command is issued, not from the previous invocation or CICS startup. If you want immediate deletion, use the PERFORM DELETSHIPPED command, described on topic PERFORM DELETSHIPPED.
See the notes at the beginning of this command description for the range of values allowed.
