Issue/Introduction

Variables with stems GLVTEMPn like GLVTEMP1 are temporary variables. When will they be deleted after they are created?

 

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component :

Resolution

From documentation:

"A global variable with a stem of GLOBAL. or GLOBALx is permanently saved across IPLs or restarts of CA OPS/MVS. A global variable with a stem of GLVTEMPx is saved only while CA OPS/MVS is active."

So GLVTEMPx variables will be deleted if OPSMAIN is recycled.
