Purge Active Procedures Across Users (MACX)

Purpose: Use this option to display active procedures for all users in your environment and to purge active procedures as necessary if, for example, the job failed to end normally.

JOBCLN: The JOBCLN periodic function deletes each active procedure record for a job that is in END status, or that is not actually active. See Using the JOBCLN Function to Resolve Job Status Across Servers for a discussion.

Deleting an active procedure: Select an active procedure and click Delete to delete it. Note:

•         You cannot delete an active procedure that is actually running on a server. Only active procedure records that are unrelated to active jobs are eligible for deletion.

•         When you delete an active procedure at this screen, it creates a User Audit record; however, no User Audit record is created if you attempt to delete an active procedure and the deletion does not succeed. See Tracking User, Authority, and Password Updates for more information on the User Audit table.
