Re: How could a job escape an ENDJOB?

Mark: Good point. I think Tomcat/Apache can be configured to do just
exactly that.

As to ENDJOBABN, run and fast from that command unless it is really needed,
and then usually only with IBM support line on board with it. You have
consigned yourself to a longer than normal IPL after that command is run
even on only one job. You can IPL at your call, but it'll have to be done
soon since there are lots of flags and such set for the OS and other things
when that command is issued. That command sets all kind of land mines to
step on unless you clear it quickly.

Are you sure it's the same job? Some server jobs will end and start
another. Maybe it's implemented as a pre-start job in which case you can
end the job, but if that takes the number of jobs below the threshold,
another one will start. Maybe there is a monitor job that will start
another server if it detects that one went away.

I've just encountered a case of a Tomcat server that (1) got stuck doing
a normal shutdown, and then (2) somehow esceped being abended by not
one, but TWO ENDJOB commands.

And there's no indication that there was any kind of authority problem
involved.
