Re: jobs held in a subsystem when subsystem is ended

Thanks everyone

I'll try to be more clear

We have a job running all day in qbatch that checks our data every 1 minute
to see if it should go to an ftp site to retrieve data from one of our
customers in response to data we sent them.

Someone held it during the day using option 3 on the wrkactjob screen. (If
you did a wrkactjob of qbatch it was at a hld status)

it stayed at the hld status till 10:30 pm

during our automated night process, subsystem qbatch is ended controlled at
10:30 PM.

working with the display log and timestamps on the ftplog, I saw that just
seconds after the subsystem was ended controlled, the held program seemed
to "wake up" and processed data from the ftp site.

I have attempted to use the Sherlock Holmes technique to eliminate every
other possibility, and this seems to be the only one left.

Any ideas?

Does anyone know?

Is there a chance that -
- if a job is held in a subsystem (it had been started by a jobscde)
- if the subsystem is ended controlled
then - the job becomes active again while the subsystem ends?
