DSCL Graceful Shutdown

The DSCLRPLY sysparm can be coded to gracefully shutdown, stop prematurely, any job using DSCL processing. This eliminates the dangers associated with forcing termination by canceling a job.

The DSCLRPLY sysparm causes a message to be issued to the operator at the start of the job that remains on the console for the duration of the job. If the operator replies END to this message, it indicates that processing is to be stopped and the job will terminate when the current object has finished.
