<div><p>Specifies the maximum amount of time for application cleanup during
the immediate ending of a job. (QENDJOBLMT)</p>
<p><span class="uicontrol">Maximum time for immediate end</span>, also known as <span class="uicontrol">QENDJOBLMT</span>,
is a member of the jobs category of i5/OS™ system values. You can use this system
value to specify the amount of time for application cleanup during the immediate
ending of a job. To learn more, keep reading.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>Specifies
the maximum amount of time (in seconds) for application cleanup during the
immediate ending of a job. This is both a maximum cleanup time and a minimum
amount of time needed to conclude that the signal handling procedure (SIGTERM)
has encountered a problem. The signal handling procedure is set up by the
application in the job and indicates how to process the incoming signals.
Only jobs running applications that use signal handling procedures use this
system value.</p>
<p>When a job being ended has a signal handling procedure
for the asynchronous signal SIGTERM, the SIGTERM signal is generated for that
job. When the signal handling procedure for the SIGTERM signal is given control,
the procedure can take the appropriate actions to avoid undesirable results
such as application data that has been partially updated. If the SIGTERM signal
handler has not completed in the specified amount of time, the system ends
the job.</p>
<p>If a job is ended in an immediate manner, the maximum time
for the signal handler is specified by this system value. This system value's
time limit is used when ending one job, when ending all the jobs in a subsystem,
or when ending all jobs in all subsystems. After two minutes from the initial
end request, the system operator can use the End Job (ENDJOB) command with
OPTION(*IMMED) to override the QENDJOBLMT value and end individual jobs immediately.
Only use this command if a job is unable to perform its cleanup due to lock
or wait conditions.</p>
<p>In order to allow enough time for both application
cleanup and system end-of-job processing, you may need to adjust the Maximum
time for immediate shutdown (QPWRDWNLMT) system value in the Restart category
of system values. If you set this system value, <span class="uicontrol">Maximum time for
immediate end</span>, to a value greater than <span class="uicontrol">Maximum time
for immediate shut down</span>, a warning message will be displayed.
When a power down occurs, all jobs must end within the time frame specified
by the <span class="uicontrol">Maximum time for immediate shut down</span> system
value in order for the power down to complete in a controlled manner.</p>
<p>Possible
values are from 30 to 3600 seconds (1 hour).</p>
