FREERIN


     Releases a global Resource Identification Number (RIN).

SYNTAX


     FREERIN rin


PARAMETERS


rin                 The Resource Identification Number (RIN) to be
                    released.  It must be a number from 1 to the
                    configured maximum.


OPERATION


     A Resource Identification Number is used to manage a
     resource shared among two or more jobs or sessions so that
     only one job or session at a time can access that resource.

     The user acquires a RIN from the system by entering the
     GETRIN command.  When all users are finished with the RIN,
     the user who acquired it returns it to the system by
     entering the FREERIN command.  To free a RIN, you must be
     the original owner of that RIN, that is the user who
     actually issued the GETRIN command that allocated the RIN
     and assigned it a password.

     This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may
     not be used in BREAK.  Pressing [Break] suspends the execution of
     this command.  Entering RESUME continues the execution.


EXAMPLE(S)


     To release RIN 1, enter
