KillJob method of the CIM_Job class

KillJob is being deprecated because there is no distinction made between an orderly shutdown and an immediate kill.

CIM_ConcreteJob.RequestStateChange() provides 'Terminate' and 'Kill' options to allow this distinction. A method to kill this job and any underlying processes, and to remove any 'dangling' associations.

Syntax

uint32 KillJob(
  [in] boolean DeleteOnKill
);

Parameters

DeleteOnKill [in]

Indicates whether or not the Job should be automatically deleted upon termination. This parameter takes precedence over the property, DeleteOnCompletion.
