It appears that there is no JCL option for an individual job that can be enabled to cause the job to terminate when /*JOBPARM LINES=10 is used and the job has produced 10,001 lines of output.
I can only find references to JES2 EXIT 9 where the decision is made for lines exceeded. I never needed this before, but then I never completely filled my spool before with a runaway job. The circumvention was to point SYSOUT file to a CYL(1) disk file and force the B37 ABEND to get control of the job and to read the log messages. Barry Merrill Herbert W.
