Deleting debugging profiles with the 3270 interface
To delete debugging profiles, start with the "List Debugging Profiles" screen, and follow the steps below. You cannot delete a profile that
is owned by another user.
- Use PF2 to ensure that the display includes the profiles you want to delete.
- Use PF7 and PF8 to scroll to a profile you want to delete.
- If you do not own the profile, you must make it inactive before you can
delete it. To do this, see
- Type D (for Delete) in the field to
the left of the profile name
- Repeat steps 2 through 4 to select
all the profiles you want to delete
- Press ENTER. CICS deletes the selected profiles, and refreshes the "List Debugging Profiles" screen.
Deleting the sample profiles
Although, in general, you cannot delete debugging profiles that are owned
by another user, the sample profiles are handled as a special case, and you can delete them. Be aware that, if you do delete
the sample profiles:
- You may affect users who want to use the sample profiles.
- The only way to create them again is to have your system programmer re-initialize
the debugging profiles data sets. However, if you do this, any other profiles
which already exist will be deleted.
If you want to use the sample profiles, and you are concerned that other
users may delete them, copy the samples. You will own the copies, and no-one
else will be able to delete them.
If you don't want to see the sample profiles when you list profiles, use
PF2 on the "List Debugging Profiles" screen to display only the profiles
that you own.
