Creating a z/OS delete service

You can use the New Delete Service wizard to create a z/OS® delete service.

A delete service removes sets of related data from a database after an extract or archive process. The delete process is initiated by a delete request, which identifies an extract or archive file as the source file containing the data you want to delete, and specifies the parameters for the delete process.

To create a delete service:
  1. From the Data Project Explorer, right-click the Services folder and click New > z/OS Service > z/OS Delete. The New Delete Service wizard opens.
  2. Complete the steps of the wizard.

    You must specify the source archive or extract file name, the control file name, and options for the delete process.
