Which reason you do not use a job monitor like OPC/TWS (IBM) or UC4 (they
are from Austria, too)? You might want to consider spool management
software like Beta92. That also can check the return codes.

Cancelling a job due to lines exceeded is, generally, bad practice.
Who are you to determine the needs of the user (whom you are [supposedly]
supporting).
I know there is the potential of a looping job; that doesn't sound like the
case, here.

If you must manage with limited resources and you explain the user where to
leave the large reports and you have management commitment for these new rules,
I consider myself entitled to enforce the rules. In the end both the I and the
user benefit from it.

If you have an automation product, then you can use it to take the action
needed. You could trigger off of the job submitted rate or the JES number of

If a job is running and you place it on hold it will remain in a limbo state
(spool is still used) until it is later RELEASE to allow output processing
