Paul,

The mystery to me here is that the ENDJOB *released* the held job in
order to cancel iteself. I would have expected it wait until manually
released. Or possibly to have waited until the timeout value is exceeded
and then released itself, effectively turning itself into an ENDJOB
*IMMED.

As far as I know, the main difference between ending a job *IMMED and
*CNTRLD is that the *CNTRLD gives the job a delay time so it can
close itself down. This assumes that the job is watching the system
feedback areas so it even knows it has been asked to shut itself
down. Once the time delay expires, *IMMED and *CNTRLD perform
exactly the same housekeeping-- closes files, puts things away,
wipes the counter clean, hangs up the dishrag, turns out the lights,
and locks the door.
