RE: Pause technique

["Wilt, Charles" <CWilt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You didn't ask about restarting, just how to pause the job stream.

I assume that if your check fails you cancel the current job stream and
restart at the appropriate place.

As a side note, I absolutely abhor this kind of processing.  It seems to
me that by processing this way, failure is an expected and acceptable
occurrence.  IMHO, that's an indicator of something seriously wrong with
the design and implementation of a system.
