There is a job notification exit point that sets up getting job status entries on a data queue - you could wait on that queue for whatever you need. It gets entries for when a job goes on a job queue, starts, and ends. Link to the documentation is at

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/apis/xjobntfy.htm

Go to WRKREGINF and look for the QIBM_QWT_JOBNOTIFY exit point there.

You can limit things to job end messages - you specify the subsystem description for the subsystem where the jobs will run.

I have an rpg program I want to use (submit to batch) as a 'monitoring' program.

Within the program, there may be files, etc. open, at any time.

Since it's a submitted job, it'll be ended from the wrkactjob screen.

Since it may be possible to end it with *IMMED or *CNTRLD, I'm worried
about cleanup (files or objects getting released).

Is there a way to monitor, within the rpg program, for 'job ending'??
The rpg program will be in a constant loop state, waking up at set
intervals to do some processing. If I can trap a 'job ending' status,
I can close out the program/job gracefully.
