Description:
The Remove Nickname (RMVNCK) command is used to remove an existing nickname from the system distribution directory. When the removed nickname is no longer available for use, the job issuing this command has ended.
A nickname is a short version of either a directory entry name or a distribution list name.
Restrictions:
1. You must have security administrator (*SECADM) authority to remove a public nickname that you do not own. No special authority is needed for you to remove a public or private nickname that you own.
2. Only the owner can remove a private nickname. No special authority is needed.
Examples:
RMVNCK NCK(SEC44A *PUBLIC)
This command removes the public nickname SEC44A. If the user has proper authority to the nickname, the nickname is removed.
