ABORTJOB/ =ABORTJOB
Aborts a job or session.
Syntax
ABORTJOB{#J nnn #S nnn [ jobname ,] user . acct }
=ABORTJOB{#J
nnn #S nnn [ jobname ,] user . acct }
Parameters
#Jnnn A job number.
#Snnn A session number.
jobname The name of the job, as identified by the SHOWJOB command.
user A user name.
acct An account name.
Operation Notes
The ABORTJOB command terminates the designated job or session, and displays the
following message on the job/session list device:
SESSION ABORTED BY SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
If you use the [jobname,]user.acct form of the command when there is more than one job
or session executing under that name, MPE/iX selects which job/session to abort.
Therefore, to exercise more precise control when aborting jobs or sessions, use the #Jnnn
or #Snnn form of the ABORTJOB command. Although the job/session is abnormally
terminated, log records are issued, and CPU-times and connect-times are updated. Any I/O
activity, such as printing or file storage, is terminated.
