I think the underlying situation is to find out why your jobs are ending
this way. You stated device errors and spool file errors was a cause.
Fact or hypothesis?

Here's something else. Instead of WRKSYSSTS, try DSPSYSSTS. Make sure
that you use F21 to select Basic mode. If you still have any of these
phantom jobs, where do they appear?

On my system,
DSPSYSSTS ASTLVL(*INTERMED) shows
Jobs in system . . . . . : 41370
DSPSYSSTS ASTLVL(*BASIC) shows

I too, would like to know if I have these phantom jobs. We purge any
spool file over 90 days old - no exceptions.
