CPF1378 - holding job.

[Rhishabh Srivastava <rhishabh@xxxxxxxxx>]

I received a message CPF1378 when holding a job . The message text says that


Cause . . . . . :   The job was performing a critical system function when
the request to hold the job was made.
Recovery  . . . :   The job will be held when the critical function is
completed.

I would like to know exactly what happened here w.r.t AS400 . Does critical
system function refers to kind of system calls and it is that when OS is
executing any system call in kernal mode the job will not get held. When can
i expect such error to come, when a job is executing.
