Sounds simpler. So how is this for JMP:
JmJobStateTC ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The current state of the job (pending, processing, completed, etc.).
The following figure shows the normal job state transitions:
+--> canceled(7)
/
+---> pending(3) --------> processing(5) -----+----> completed(9)
| ^ ^ \
--->+ | | +--> aborted(8)
| v v /
+---> pendingHeld(4) processingStopped(6) --+
<--------------- active -----------------> <--- in-active --->
Figure 4 - Normal Job State Transitions
Normally a job progresses only from left to right. Other state transitions
are unlikely, but are not forbidden. The canceled state can be entered from
the pending, pendingHeld, processing, or processingStopped states."
-- This is a type 2 enumeration. See Section 7.1 on page 25.
