This statement can be used to delete an existing class definition from the SJMSFILE or the JMS database.
If the definition in the file is deleted, any jobs of the class in question that are in the job pool when the next system session starts are lost. If the definition is to be deleted in the system, its status is flagged as “IN-DELETE”. The class definition is not removed from the database until no remaining jobs are assigned to the class.
No new jobs are accepted for job classes flagged as “IN-DELETE”.
Deletion of a default class is not permitted. If a default class is to be deleted, all access rights to it must first be rescinded.
