CEERTX is a VERY powerful tool.  However, with all that power comes danger -
be SURE that any routine registered via CEERTX checks for all errors and
ends gracefully.  If an unmonitored message occurs inside a CEERTX handler,
the job hangs, and cannot be terminated externally (well, ENDJOBABN may
work, haven't tried that).  At this point, even ENDSBS *IMMED won't work
(this can cause some consternation during nightly backups).
