Deleting VMO Records

Use the DELETE subcommand under the CONTROL(VMO) setting to delete VMO records. The syntax for this DELETE subcommand is:


       { *                 }
DELete { recordname        }
       { LIKE(recordmask)  }
 
       [ SYSid(?|sysid)    ]
       [ MSYSid(sysidmask) ]

The DELETE subcommand has the following parameters:

*: Specifies that you want to use the same recordname as the last record you processed since you established the CONTROL(VMO) setting. The asterisk does not work with multiple records or masking.
recordname: Specifies a one‑ to eight‑character ID of the VMO record to be listed.
LIKE(recnamemask): Specifies a mask for the VMO record IDs to be deleted. This masking follows the same conventions as logonids. Use caution when deleting multiple VMO records with this parameter.
SYSID(?|sysid): Specifies the SYSID of the VMO record to be deleted. If you specify a question mark (?) as the SYSID value, CA ACF2 for VM uses the default value for the system. Any value you specify with the SYSID parameter can contain asterisks or a trailing dash. These characters are treated as part of the SYSID itself and not as an indication of masking. If you specify the SYSID parameter, you cannot specify the MSYSID parameter. You can abbreviate the SYSID parameter to a minimum of SYS.
MSYSID(sysidmask): Specifies a mask to indicate the SYSIDs where the specified VMO record is deleted. This SYSID mask must contain at least one asterisk or a trailing dash. Use caution when you delete multiple VMO records with this parameter. You can abbreviate the MSYSID parameter to a minimum of MSYS.
