For clarification...
<quote>
ARM
The system is to terminate the specified job, time-sharing user, or
started procedure if it is non-cancellable. If the FORCE ARM command
fails to terminate the address space within a reasonable time, reissue
FORCE with the ARM parameter. The ARM parameter executes normal task
termination routines without causing address space destruction. The
system rejects this parameter if the address space for the specified
job, time-sharing user, or started procedure cannot be terminated or
should be terminated via the CANCEL command. If the command still
fails after several attempts, try issuing FORCE without the ARM
parameter.
Note: This keyword is not related to the ARMRESTART parameter and the
functions of the automatic restart manager.
