You can use the TERM UTILITY command to terminate a COPYTOCOPY job

Restart of a COPYTOCOPY job

If you do not use the TERM UTILITY command, you can restart a COPYTOCOPY job. COPYTOCOPY jobs restart from the last commit point. You cannot use RESTART(PHASE) for any COPYTOCOPY job. If you are restarting a COPYTOCOPY job with uncataloged output data sets, you must specify the appropriate volumes for the job in the JCL or on the TEMPLATE utility statement. Doing so could impact your ability to use implicit restart.

To prepare for restarting a COPYTOCOPY job, specify DISP=(MOD,CATLG,CATLG) on your DD statements.
