Since we have so many options, I thought I'd throw in another one,
something I picked from the experts at Beechglen. Depends on your needs,
and why you want to know if a job is running or not running. Here's is
an example of "Is it running, because I don't want it running"
If you don't care what the job number is, only that the program, say as
an example INETD.NET.SYS is running, or not running.
The KEY to this is in the file equation "EXE" accessing a program file
with execute access on.
USER DEFINED COMMAND FILE: STOPINET.UTIL.SYS
SETVAR INETDRUNNING,"Y"
SETVAR NUMTRIES,0
WHILE INETDRUNNING = "Y"
FILE TESTIT=INETD.NET.SYS;EXC
SETVAR HPFSERR,0
CONTINUE
PRINT *TESTIT;END=1 >$NULL
IF HPFSERR = 90 OR HPFSERR = 91 THEN
SETVAR NUMTRIES,NUMTRIES + 1
IF NUMTRIES = 1 THEN
TELLOP INETd Server is still running,
TELLOP Wait for shutdown.
RUN INETD.NET.SYS;INFO="-k"
ENDIF
PAUSE 10
ELSE
SETVAR INETDRUNNING,"N"
ENDIF
ENDWHILE
TELLOP INETd Server shutdown is complete.

If you know the job number, you could use a JINFO function:
setvar IsRunning jinfo('#J4',"EXIST")
You can also do something like this (at least it works for me!):
showjob job=myjob,manager.sys >showtemp
setvar numlines finfo('showtemp',19)
if !numlines<4 then
#Job does not exist
else
#Job exists
endif

Subject: Re: [HP3000-L] Need Intrinsic to say if a job is running or not
I think there's an MPEX command that returns the number of jobs matching
the
Job Card mask.
%IF JSCOUNT("@,@.OMSINSTL")<>0 THEN
%ENDIF
