Retention interval (RTNITV)

Specifies the retention interval. This interval is the number of hours for which the queue might be needed, based on the date and time when the queue was created.

This information is available to a housekeeping application or an operator and can be used to determine when a queue is no longer required.

Note: The message queue manager does not delete queues, nor does it prevent your queues from being deleted if their retention interval has not expired. It is your responsibility to take any required action.

The possible values are:
