DELETE TERMINAL Command
For a complete description of each terminal attribute, see the ADD TERMINAL
Command on page 14-2.
Considerations
If you specify a PNAME attribute, be sure is unique for each terminal. For this
reason, LIKE does not include the PNAME attribute.
Examples
The following command alters the terminal definition for the terminal $TFOX.#T009. It
specifies that TACL is to be the command interpreter, that it is to run in CPU 3, and that
the startup parameter text is 4. TACL interprets this text as the backup CPU number.
=ALTER TERMINAL $tfox.#t009, PROG $system.system.tacl, &
=CPU 3, PARAM-TEXT 4
DELETE TERMINAL Command
The DELETE TERMINAL command deletes a terminal definition record for a specified
terminal. You can specify only one terminal name in a DELETE TERMINAL command,
but that name can contain wild-card characters.
If you have defined a SECURITY-ADMINISTRATOR security group, only members of
that group can use the DELETE TERMINAL command.
TERMINAL
specifies TERMINAL as the object type of the DELETE command. Omit this option
if TERMINAL is the assumed object type. (For more information on assumed
object types, see the ASSUME Command on page 4-3.)
terminal-spec
specifies the terminal or terminals whose definition is to be deleted.
Considerations
The terminal must be frozen with a FREEZE TERMINAL command before you can
delete it with a DELETE TERMINAL command.
After you delete a terminal definition record, that terminal is not usable until you
start another command interpreter to handle the logon dialog at the terminal.
