Suppose program 'A' is processing a VSAM file and abends in middle. What happens to the VSAM file? Will it be closed automatically?

If by chance the file is not closed properly because of the abend is there a way or utility by the VSAM can be closed explicitly from outside so that it is available for use. We are facing a abend where the program abends trying to open a file saying that it is already in use or open. We have verified and at that point the file was not accessed by any other user and the program also do not have logic to open multiple times. Some earlier jobs had abended using that file.
