The run-time system has passed a a SIGTERM signal to a service execution process (SEP) running on an enterprise server (SIGHUP and SIGINT as well on UNIX). This may occur for 
	 one of 
	 the following reasons:
  
 
	  
		- Implicitly as part of MSS's runaway task processing when the server manager notices that a CICS transaction appears to be looping. 
		
- Explicitly on UNIX if you execute a 
		  kill -s TERM 
			 pid command (where 
		  pid is the process ID of the SEP). You might do this if you see a SEP consuming a lot of CPU. 
		
 
		Resolution:
		
 
		Investigate the reason for the service or CICS transaction looping, for example, by analysing enterprise server dumps or traces, or by animating the service or transaction.
