HDB Housekeeping

The HDB(HKEEP) operand requests CICS PA to perform housekeeping on the HDB Register (DDname CPAHDBRG). Housekeeping deletes expired HDB container data sets and removes definitions from the HDB Register that are no longer required.

The command format is:
CICSPA HDB(HKEEP)
Note: There is a second function available in HDB housekeeping, Repair HDB Register using VERIFY command. This is available only from the CICS PA dialog.
