Considerations for Altering ASSIGNs, PARAMs, and DEFINEs
• For an ALTER command, if the associated physical file name must be altered, it should be the
first attribute after the assign name itself.
• Unlike the TACL ASSIGN, PARAM, and DEFINE commands, which replace the previous
parameters with new definitions, the ALTER ASSIGN, PARAM, and DEFINE commands related
to a generic process alter only the specified attribute.
• Other considerations are same as those for a generic process. For more details, see
considerations under “Altering a Generic Process” (page 55).
Deleting the ASSIGN Attribute of a Generic Process
Deleting the ASSIGN attribute of a generic process is similar to deleting any generic process
attribute. For details, see “DELETE Command for Using ASSIGNs, PARAMs, and DEFINEs”
(page 99).
Example
This example shows how to delete the ASSIGN attribute of a generic process.
-> ASSUME PROCESS $ZZKRN.#GP
-> DELETE, ASSIGN ABC
Deleting the PARAM Attribute of a Generic Process
Deleting the PARAM attribute of a generic process is similar to deleting any generic process
attribute. For details, see “DELETE Command for Using ASSIGNs, PARAMs, and DEFINEs”
(page 99).
Example
This example shows how to delete the PARAM attribute of a generic process.
-> ASSUME PROCESS $ZZKRN.#GP
-> DELETE, PARAM ABC
Deleting the DEFINE Attribute of a Generic Process
Deleting the DEFINE attribute of a generic process is similar to deleting any generic process attribute.
For details, see “DELETE Command for Using ASSIGNs, PARAMs, and DEFINEs” (page 99).
Example
This example shows how to delete the DEFINE attribute of a generic process.
-> ASSUME PROCESS $ZZKRN.#GP
-> DELETE, DEFINE =ABC
