Re: Job will not end, tape will not vary off

Scott,

Ok. on the ENDWA. I did not see you were responding to Rob's post, so I
believed you were recommending it to the OP.

My apologies...

No, AFAIK this is for writer jobs only. The ENDWA stands for End Writer
Abnormally.

Scott,

Would that work for a save job?

never never never never never never try an ENDSBS to kill a job! We

tried

that once on a spool writer job which would not end. ENDWTR, ENDJOBABN,
etc would not work. All ENDSBS did was kill the rest of the writers.

And

we could not run STRSBS until the subsystem ended. End result: No
writers until we performed an IPL.

I think I have to repost this about every other month.
