Deleting region folders

About this task

CICS® BAC allows you to delete any individual region folder in the tree pane, but you cannot delete the individual object folders (Files, TDQueues, etc.) under a region folder. Deleting a region folder removes all of the definitions for that region. If you have spent some time customizing the settings for a region, make sure they are uploaded to the mainframe host before deleting the region folder.

Note: You can set your preferences so that folders and objects are deleted automatically when you upload them. Alternately, you can set preferences so that CICS BAC prompts you whether or not to delete after uploading, instead of deleting them automatically.

To delete a region folder:

Procedure

  1. In the tree pane on the left side of the CICS BAC main window, select the folder to be deleted.
  2. Click the Delete icon on the toolbar or select File > Delete > CICS region folder. CICS BAC displays a warning and asks you to confirm the deletion.
  3. Click OK key to delete the folder.
