The run-time system has passed a SIGTERM signal to a service execution process (SEP) running on an enterprise server (SIGHUP and SIGINT as well on UNIX). This may occur for
one of
the following reasons:
- Implicitly as part of MSS's runaway task processing when the server manager notices that a CICS transaction appears to be looping.
- Explicitly on UNIX if you execute a
kill -s TERM
pid command (where
pid is the process ID of the SEP). You might do this if you see a SEP consuming a lot of CPU.
Resolution:
Investigate the reason for the service or CICS transaction looping, for example, by analysing enterprise server dumps or traces, or by animating the service or transaction.
