RE: Terminating an idle batch job

What do you mean by an idle batch job?  What are your batch jobs waiting on?
Are you talking about failed jobs with error messages on QSYSOPR?  I can't
imagine an idle job where the code has not been specifically written to wait
on some sort of logic (monitoring a message queue or data queue, or in a
wait or DLYJOB loop...)

Subject: Terminating an idle batch job


My batch jobs do not have a way to shut themselves down - and they mostly
sit and wait. How can I end the jobs if they have been waiting for a long
time?

Another way to explain this - I want an equivalent of QINACTITV for batch
jobs..

Has anyone built this? Or is there software?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Trevor
