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.
