ALTER CHANNEL

 


Use ALTER CHANNEL to alter the parameters of a channel.

For cluster-sender channels, you can only alter channels that have been created manually.

If you change the XMITQ name or the CONNAME, reset the sequence number at both ends of the channel. (See RESET CHANNEL for information about the SEQNUM parameter.)

Synonym: ALT CHL

There is a separate syntax diagram for each type of channel:
