To cancel a job, if you have MVS console authority, you can enter the JES2 cancel command "$C 'jobname'. The entire list of JES2 commands arew documented here:

If the problem was sever enough that the cancel command does not work, then an MVS FORCE command might be necessary:
CANCEL jobname, documented here:
http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/iea2g141/CCONTENTS
If you don't have console authority, you can usually still cancel your own jobs from within your JES Spool access facility (SDSF, IOF, Sysview, etc.). A cancel command would typically be a "C" (cancel), "K" (kill), or "I" (interrupt). Consult the appropriate documentation for your product. |

| Sometimes, its better to purge a job instead of cancelling it. You can go to s.st & type 'P' before yr job name and press enter. |
