Subject: Re: Jobs running without a program stack

FWiW: The program stack exists, it is just not available outside of
LIC, because the job is running in the LIC rather than in the OS level
[or running /masked/ I suppose]. To see the stack requires:
STRSST,1,4,2,4,2,5,1,,3,F3,7,F3,F3, /* comma => Enter */
DSPSPLF QPCSMPRT SPLNBR(*LAST)

Contacting your service provider is probably the best approach at
this point, to have them investigate the issue. I infer very likely
that there is something like an effective deadlock condition, very
possibly long waits due to seize contention, for which the jobs are not
ending [timely]. It is best to *not* attempt to end the jobs or the
subsystem as recovery; esp. because the subsystem and job queue, if
there is a case of non-ending jobs, that subsystem is then no longer
available until pwrdwn/IPL completes.
