MVS command to Delete an Exit routine from an Exit

17th August 2009 Rui Miguel Feio MVS

The following command deletes an exit routine from an exit:

/SETPROG EXIT,DELETE,EXITNAME=exit_name,MODNAME=mod_name,FORCE=yes_no

Example:

exit_name = SYSSTC.IEFACTRT

mod_name = IEFACTRT

/SETPROG EXIT,DELETE,EXITNAME=SYSSTC.IEFACTRT,MODNAME=IEFACTRT

Note:

FORCE = NO is the default value and therefore we don’t need to specify it. This changes the state of the exit routine to inactive and the system does not free the storage.

FORCE=YES frees the storage of the exit routine immediately and it should be used only if you are sure that no exit is running that exit routine.
