Re: Cancel a ACTIVE JOB

I want to CANCEL the job that is in ACTIVE STATUS on OS400.

AS400 sys = new AS400(); Job JobObj = new Job(system, jobName,
userName, jobNumber); JobObj.end(0);

The Job ends immediately but the status of the job is ABNORMAL. I
want the job status to be CANCEL or ABORT

Specify a end delay of more than zero or -1.  *IF* the job has logic to
detect that it's been canceled (few do in my experience) that will give
it time to end itself normally.

Otherwise, when the delay expires, the job will be ended immediately.

From the javadoc on Job.end ...

To end the job controlled, specify -1 for the delay. To end the job
immediately, specify 0 for the delay. Specify any other amount of
delay time (in seconds) allowed for the job to cleanup.
