Parameters


entry-number[,...]

   Specifies the entry number (or a list of entry numbers) of jobs
   to be deleted. If you specify only one entry number, you can
   omit the parentheses. If you do not specify a queue name, you can
   delete entries from multiple queues.

   The system assigns a unique entry number to each queued print
   or batch job in the system. By default, the PRINT and SUBMIT
   commands display the entry number when they successfully queue
   a job for processing. These commands also create or update the
   local symbol $ENTRY to reflect the entry number of the most
   recently queued job. To find a job's entry number, enter the
   SHOW ENTRY or SHOW QUEUE command.


queue-name[:]

   Specifies the name of the queue where the jobs are located. The
   queue name can refer either to the queue to which the job was
   submitted or to the queue where the job is executing. The queue-
   name parameter is optional syntax; however, when you specify a
   queue name, the operating system uses it to verify an entry in
   the specific queue before deleting the entry.
