kill
Stops a job that is running. In UNIX, this is accomplished with a UNIX kill command. You must have kill access to the job.
Syntax
{kill | k} jobselect
[;noask]
Arguments
- jobselect
- See Selecting jobs in commands.
- noask
- Specifies not to prompt for confirmation before taking action on each qualifying job.
Comments
The kill operation is not performed by conman; it is run by a IBM Workload Scheduler production process, so there might be a short delay.
Killed jobs end in the ABEND state. Any jobs or job streams that are dependent on a killed job are not released. Killed jobs can be rerun.
Examples
To kill the job report in
job stream apwkly(0600 03/05/06) on workstation site3,
run the following command:
kill site3#apwkly(0600 03/05/06).reportTo kill job number 124 running on workstation geneva,
run the following command:
kill geneva#124
