DISCARD PARTNER
Remove a PARTNER definition.
Description
The DISCARD PARTNER command removes the definition of a partner from the local CICS system, so that the system no longer has access to the partner; that is, it revokes the earlier installation of a PARTNER resource definition of the same name.
See Discarding resource definitions for general information about discards.
