Job Cancellation

When you cancel a running job, the server flags the job as failed and does not release the job's successors. To release the job's successors, you must complete the job.

If you cancel a Windows or UNIX job, the agent cancels the running process, and the server flags the job as failed.

Note the following about job cancellation:

• Some workload objects do not support job cancellation.
• To cancel a Micro Focus job, you may have to issue the cancel command twice. After issuing the first command, if the job continues to execute, issue the cancel command again.
• In most cases, you cannot cancel an SQL or DB Stored Procedure job.
