    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
    *                  Server V8.5 Parallel Job Manager Batch      *

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Cancelling a Parallel Job Manager Top   *
    *                      Level job before all subjobs are        *

    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The Top Level job would not transition out of cancel pending
    state until the return codes of all subjobs had been
    processed.  If a subjob had not yet been submitted, there
    would be no return code to process causing the Top Level job
    to stay in cancel pending state.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A check was added to the code to verify that the subjob had
    been submitted before checking if the subjob return code had
    been processed.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.5.5.5.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
