DELIMS calls (Delete an IMS segment)
This IEB call deletes the current segment and must be preceded by a GETIMS
function call with the USING_VIEW parameter.
- delsegm
- The name of the segment you want to delete.
If FM/IMS encounters an unavailable HALDB partition or DEDB area, the
DELIMS function receives a return code of 8 and the ISPF variable FMSTATUS
indicates an IMS status code of:
- FH
- Unavailable DEDB area
- BA
- Unavailable HALDB partition
Returns zero if successful, otherwise nonzero. If DELIMS is unsuccessful, then you can check the DL/I status code in the FMSTATUS REXX variable to determine the cause of failure.
