Command Definitions (ABORTSESS - FCLOSE)
ABORTSESS
on the job/session list device:
SESSION ABORTED BY SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
ABORTSESS can be applied to waiting or scheduled jobs, or executing jobs or sessions. If the
spooler input file ($STDIN) for a batch job has been created and has not yet been opened,
the entire file is deleted. If ABORTSESS is issued before the output spoolfile is complete, only
that portion of the file already opened is printed and an error message is issued indicating
that the job was aborted.
ABORTSESS can be successfully called only if the program is executing in a job/session that
satisfies at least one of the following conditions:
• The job/session is on the system console.
• The job/session was allowed the ABORTJOB command.
• JOBSECURITY is set to LOW and the user and account names of the job/session are the
same as the user and account names of the job/session being aborted.
• JOBSECURITY is set to LOW and the job/session has account manager (AM) capability,
and the account name of the job/session is the same as the account name of the
job/session being aborted.
• JOBSECURITY is set to LOW and the job/session has system manager (SM) capability.
