Sorry, but a 'loop' is what programs do. The idea is to somehow figure out if the 'loop' is due to a bug or not.
What you can do is set CPU time limits. They are easy enough to do, and easy enough to justify.

Usually i use to find this through either the TGNUM value or through the EXCP Cnt. But today i found a genuine job( not a system or admin job) running with high TGNUM EXCP and also with considerable amount of CPU time . Are there any way to find a if a Job is really consuming lot of CPU or Running Under Loop for a long time. Any suggestion or an advise would be of a great help.
