Re: Stuck batch job, like nothing I've ever seen before

There's always ENDJOBABN, but I look at that as a last resort. I hate to
use it and avoid it if at all possible.

What release? I had this happen once on 7.3 but it was eventually killed
by an IPL. The IPL was to load a bunch of PTFs and the situation never
arose again.

says "No call stack."

I can't recall ever seeing anything like this before.
