Uh... ENDJOB comes to mind.
Yes, and Larry brought it to my attention off-List. And as I told him, I
can't recall ever using it that way. I think I've occasionally used it
as a fallback for jobs that failed to terminate when asked politely to
do so (e.g., a Tomcat server that ignored a shutdown signal).
It works, and if the job is ending itself, it apparently doesn't need
JOBCTL authority to do so, because I was able to run my test CL program
suite (test1 calling test2 calling test3, which does an ENDJOB *IMMED)
just fine from an account that had a class of PGMR, but no special
authorities, and so presumably no JOBCTL, at least according to

Funny thing: last night, I could have sworn that it was leaving an abend
message in the QSYSOPR message queue, but this morning, it definitely is
not.
