Alter channel page https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSFKSJ_7.5.0/com.ibm.mq.ref.adm.doc/q085170_.htm shows that I can use Disconnect interval (DISCINT) in server connection channel alter command, however I get error message which claims that it can only be used for server or sender channel types, but not for server connection channel types.

Maybe MQ command level is too low for DISCINT attribute? How can I check that?

Operating System is Linux for that particular workgroup server...

This knowledge center page for MQ v 7.0.1 indicates that alter chl DISCINT is only valid on zOS.

Also, this page says: This attribute is valid for channel types Server connection (z/OS® only)

Maybe you are using an older version of MQ? There are many different ways to check your MQ version - from the command line try dspmqver.

thanks. I used "IBM Knowledge Center" and searched four times for "ALTER CHANNEL", each time with a different products filter value (Websphere MQ), then clicked on a result which has common alter channels parameters table scrolled to the bottom of the page, selected "Server-connection channel" and found that DISCINT command is "z/OS only" when command level is lower that 710. You can use DISCINT for 710 or greater with no problems on all OS'es.
@Benas - Check the the pages linked by Valerie again. On the first page the DISCINT parm has a footnote #3. The second page has some bullets halfway down. Both of these indicate that DISCINT is only valid on z/OS at this version. Perhaps you meant "You can use DISCINT for 7.5 or greater with no problems on all OS'es"?
