Writing Rules › How Do You Maintain Rules? › DELETE: Deleting CA ACF2 Option for DB2 Rules › Syntax › Parameters

Parameters

The DELETE subcommand takes the following parameters:

*

Lets you delete the last individual CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule set that you explicitly referenced since establishing the CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule setting.

rulekey

Specifies the $KEY of the individual CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule set to be deleted.

Like(rulekeymask)

Specifies a mask of multiple $KEY of CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule sets to be deleted. All CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule sets with $KEYs that match this resource mask are deleted. Use extreme care when you delete multiple rule sets with this parameter. When you enter an online subcommand that deletes multiple records from the CA ACF2 Infostorage database, CA ACF2 Option for DB2 prompts you to confirm your DELETE LIKE request. If you respond Y, the subcommand is executed. If you respond N or anything else, CA ACF2 Option for DB2 ignores the subcommand and prompts for the next command. In batch, CA ACF2 Option for DB2 does not prompt you to confirm your request.

SYSID(sysid)

Specifies the DB2 subsystem ID or group ID (GSYSID) of the CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rules that you want to delete. This SYSID overrides the SYSID value that you specified on the SET subcommand. If you did not specify the SYSID parameter when you established the CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule setting, CA ACF2 Option for DB2 displays the message INVALID REQUEST - UNDEFINED SYSID.

If you specify SYSID, you cannot specify MSYSID.

MSYSID(sysidmask)

Specifies a mask to indicate the subsystem IDs of the CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rules that CA ACF2 Option for DB2 will delete. This MSYSID overrides the SYSID value that you specified on the SET subcommand. If you did not specify a subsystem ID or a mask when you established the CA ACF2 Option for DB2 rule setting, CA ACF2 Option for DB2 displays the message INVALID REQUEST - UNDEFINED SYSID.

If you specify MSYSID, you cannot specify SYSID.
