I would like to get our daily differential STORE job to 'run clean' on a
normal day, and abort on an abnormal day. Then the aborted job will be
handled with Nobix JobPak, because timely, intelligent human
intervention is apparently not an option. I am pretty sure that I'm not
the first list member to want to do this, but I don't find any traffic
on this subject.

One of the obstacles I know about is that some number of files will be
"OPEN FOR WRITING". Now, some of these, I could have excluded in an
indirect file, but others are for instance the various logs that remain
open. I can think of ways to hack up such a list, but none that I care
for. What other challenges does this offer?

Since there has not been much traffic on this, I assume it would be best
to send to me off list, and I can compile and repost the results.
Thanks.
