DISPLAYING THE STATUS OF BACKGROUND JOBS
Any time after you submit a background job you can use the STATUS
command to have its status displayed. The display wi 11 tell you whether
the job is awaiting execution, is currently executiIlJ, or has executed.
For example, if you want to display the status of SMITH23, enter:
READY
status smith23
If you want to know the status of all the jobs with jobnames consisting
of your user identification plus one character., enter the STATUS command
without operands:
READY
status
CANCELLING BACKGROUND JOBS
You can use the CANCEL command to cancel execution of a background job.
If the job has already been executed, the CANCEL command has no effect.
For example, if you want to cancel job JONESAB, enter:
READY
cancel jonesab
After you enter the CANCEL command, the system will send you a message
telling you that the jobs specified have been cancelled.
