Obsolete resource definition types and attributes

Some resource definition types and some attributes are now obsolete. You must replace obsolete resource definitions, and obsolete attributes as appropriate.

Resource definition attributes made obsolete in CICS Transaction Server for z/OS®, Version 5 Release 2

DNSGROUP in TCPIPSERVICE resource
The DNSGROUP attribute on TCPIPSERVICE resource definitions specified the group name with which CICS registered to Workload Manager, for connection optimization. DNSGROUP is obsolete as part of the removal of support for DNS Connection Optimization. DNSGROUP is supported for CSD compatibility for earlier releases of CICS where it is still valid.
EXPIRYINT in TSMODEL resource
The EXPIRYINT attribute on TSMODEL resource definitions specified the expiry interval for matching temporary storage queues in hours. It has been replaced by the EXPIRYINTMIN attribute, which specifies the expiry interval in minutes. EXPIRYINT is supported for CSD compatibility, and an expiry interval specified using EXPIRYINT is accepted in compatibility mode. New models should use the EXPIRYINTMIN attribute.
GRPCRITICAL in TCPIPSERVICE resource
The GRPCRITICAL attribute on TCPIPSERVICE resource definitions marked the service as a critical member of the DNS group. GRPCRITICAL is obsolete as part of the removal of support for DNS Connection Optimization. GRPCRITICAL is supported for CSD compatibility for earlier releases of CICS where it is still valid.
