Scott

You also need to handle the case like:
1) The submitted job gets a JCL error prior to executing your code;
STC is never posted.
2) The submitted job gets queued up on resource contention; STC is
left waiting for a long time.
3) The submitted job is forced off the system in a way that precludes
the ESTAE from being invoked; STC is never posted.

I think these can be solved by attaching a sub-task in the STC to
monitor/wait for the submitted job to complete.  The sub-task would
need a stimer to handle the case where the submitted job does not post
back.  After a certain period of time, it is assumed that the
submitted job failed, and then recovery processing or corrective
actions are taken.
