How to Use the uustat Command to Cancel Remote Jobs

A Basic Networking Utilities (BNU) connection must be established with the target remote system.
A remote job must have been issued from the local system.

This procedure uses the uustat command to cancel a BNU process issued to a remote system.

Determine the job ID number of the process, listed in the remote queue. On the command line of the local system, type:
```
uustat -a
```
The -a option displays all jobs in the remote system's holding queue and the job requests of any other BNU users on the system.
BNU responds with a message similar to:
```
heraC3113   11/06-17:47  S hera   you   289 D.venus471afd8
merlinC3119 11/06-17:49  S merlin jane  338 D.venus471bc0a
```
Type:
```
uustat -k heraC3113
```
The -k option cancels the heraC3113 job request.
