Cameron, Did you know that you can use LINES parm to cancel/Dump/Warning for the job? https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/3.1.0?topic=statement-lines-parameter For example, if you code this on job card // LINES=(20,CANCEL), Then the job will be cancelled if it writes out more than 20,000 lines to Spool You can dynamically insert that LINES parm into every job.
