Functions
F11–Suspend Suspends the processes associated with an executing job. (F11 is the
same as the BATCHCOM command SUSPEND JOB.)
The executor of a suspended job is not available to execute other jobs
while the job remains suspended. You can release the executor for job
execution by doing either of:
Resume execution of the job by performing the F10–Activate
function. The executor is released when the job finishes.
Delete the job by performing the F8–Delete function.
You can only suspend a job if you previously validated one of these
Guardian user IDs:
The ID of a super-group user (255, n). Super-group users can
suspend any job.
The ID of the job owner.
The ID of a user who has write access to the job input file. If the input
file does not exist or if the file is a device or process, only the owner
or a super-group user can suspend the job.
F12–Stop Deletes an executing or suspended job and all the processes associated
with the job. (F12 is the same as the BATCHCOM command STOP JOB.)
The function does not delete a process created by the job but dissociated
from it by the run option JOBID.
The function deletes jobs with a state of EXECUTING or SUSPENDED.
The function does not delete jobs with a state of EVENT, READY,
RUNNEXT, RUNNOW, SPECIAL-n, TAPE, or TIME. (To delete these
jobs, use the F8–Delete function).
F12 does not prevent a recurrent job (a recurrent job has the CALENDAR
or EVERY attribute) from being rescheduled for execution. The job is
rescheduled as usual the next time the attribute condition is satisfied.
You can stop a job only if you previously validated one of these Guardian
user IDs:
The ID of a super-group user (255, n). Super-group users can stop
any job.
The ID of the job owner.
The ID of a user who has write access to the job input file. If the input
file does not exist or if the file is a device or process, only the owner
or a super-group user can stop the job.
F13–Info Displays the Job Info screen. Use the Job Info screen to display
information about a selected job. You can also use the screen to create a
job and submit it to the scheduler for execution.
F15–Inquiry Displays the Job Inquiry screen. Use the Job Inquiry screen to display
information about the processes created by an executing job.
