****************************************************************
In certain cases in which a batch job execution is determined by
the executor to be invalid, a cached record of the running
execution is created, and when the executor server is ultimately
stopped (or the batch component within the executor shutdown),
the job instance/execution is set to STOPPING status, even if
the instance had reached COMPLETED status.

This can happen when the server aborted in the middle of
execution and then the executor is restarting causing a
redelivery of the previous batch JMS execution message, or if
perhaps two restart messages were delivered to the same batch
executor for the same job.

Even if one valid restart execution message is consumed and
processed and the job executes to completion, the cached aborted
execution record is incorrectly "cleaned up" on shutdown, and
the status is moved to STOPPING, incorrectly.

Problem conclusion

Cache is now cleaned up correctly and invalid state transitions
are prevented.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix
pack 17.0.0.1.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for
