Remove Work Station Entry (RMVWSE)

The Remove Work Station Entry (RMVWSE) command removes a work station entry from the specified subsystem description.

Restrictions:

  1. To use this command, you must have:
    • object operational (*OBJOPR), object management (*OBJMGT), and read (*READ) authority to the specified subsystem description and execute (*EXECUTE) authority to the library containing the subsystem description.
  2. Work station entries in the subsystem description of an active subsystem may not be removed if there are active jobs associated with the entry.
  3. A *CON or CONS entry may not be removed from the controlling subsystem.

Parameters

Keyword Description Choices Notes
SBSD Subsystem description Qualified object name Required, Positional 1
Qualifier 1: Subsystem description Name
Qualifier 2: Library Name, *LIBL, *CURLIB
WRKSTN Work station name Generic name, name Optional
WRKSTNTYPE Work station type *ALL, 3179, 3180, 3196, 3197, 3277, 3278, 3279, 3476, 3477, 3486, 3487, 5251, 5252, 5291, 5292, 5555, *ASCII, CONS, *CONS, *NONASCII Optional

Subsystem description (SBSD)

Specifies the name and library of the subsystem description containing the work station job entry that is removed.

This is a required parameter.

Qualifier 1: Subsystem description

name
Specify the name of the subsystem description where the work station job entry is being removed.

Note: The following IBM-supplied objects are not valid on this parameter:

  • QLPINSTALL
  • QSYSSBSD

Qualifier 2: Library

*LIBL
All libraries in the thread's library list are searched until a match is found.
*CURLIB
The current library for the thread is used to locate the object. If no library is specified as the current library for the thread, the QGPL library is used.
name
Specify the library where the subsystem description is located.

Work station name (WRKSTN)

Specifies the name of the work station used by the subsystem. The device description name that was specified in the Create Device Desc (Display) (CRTDEVDSP) command associated with the work station is the name used.

Double-Byte Character Set Considerations: For double-byte character set (DBCS), a work station whose type is 5555 must be specified for either this parameter or the Work station type (WRKSTNTYPE) parameter, but not for both.

generic-name
Specify a generic name. Examples include: DSP*, RMT*,...

Note: Specifying a generic work station name does not result in multiple entries being added, changed, or removed.

name
Specify the name of a specific work station. Examples include: DSP10, DSP11, RMT55,...

A value must be specified on either this parameter or the Work station type (WRKSTNTYP) parameter, but not for both.

Work station type (WRKSTNTYPE)

Specifies the type of work station associated with the entry being added, changed, or removed. This entry applies to all work stations of this type that do not have specific entries for an individual work station.

*ALL
All work station devices. This includes devices with 5250, ASCII, and 327x device types.
3179
3179 work station.
3180
3180 work station.
3196
3196 work station.
3197
3197 work station.
3277
3277 work station.
3278
3278 work station.
3279
3279 work station.
3476
3476 work station.
3477
3477 work station.
3486
3486 work station.
3487
3487 work station.
5251
5251 work station.
5291
5291 work station.
5292
5292 color work station.
5555
5555 double-byte character set (DBCS) capable work station.
*ASCII
All ASCII work station device types.
CONS
System console display. This entry overrides a device type entry that specifies the same device type as the device being used as the console.
*CONS
System console display. This entry overrides a device type entry that specifies the same device type as the device being used as the console.
*NONASCII
All work station devices that use the 5250 data stream, as well as, 327x device types.

A value must be specified on either this parameter or the Work station name (WRKSTN) parameter, but not for both.

Examples

RMVWSE   SBSD(LIB2/CHARLES)  WRKSTN(B53)

This command removes the work station entry for work station B53 from the subsystem description named CHARLES in library LIB2.
