Careful on ENDSBS!

I had a writer job that wouldn't end, even with ENDJOBABN.  So I tried
ENDSBS QSPL *IMMED.  The end result?  No printer output until the next
IPL.  Because all jobs ended except the stuck job, the subsystem was in an
END status and STRSBS wouldn't start it because it was still ending.  I
couldn't find this technique in "How to Win Friends and Influence People".

I have had jobs that can't be ended by ENDJOBABN, as you
found. I like your solution, to ENDSBS. But until that
is possible, maybe the job can be held, so it stops
taking CPU.
