Backup Exec 2010 Job Status Codes

This issue has been solved. See solution.
Hi,
I am trying to see whether the job status codes have changed in Backup Exec 2010+. I noticed:
JOB STATUS: 1 (Running)
from "bemcmd -o16 -i <job_id>" command. In previous versions job status 1 was considered cancelled. Where can I find all latest job status codes? I would like to see job status codes for Backup Exec 2012 as well.
Thank you.

Hi Craig,
Yes, I saw that. Since it was a July 2009 posting, I think it is not valid for Backup Exec 2010+. I can already see the job status mismatch for:
JOB_STATE_CANCELED = 1 The job has been terminated because it was canceled.
Which is incorrect as I can see in the command output.
Thanks

This is the link for the BEMCMD command line applet for BE 2010.

This would therefore be relevant for your version.
Thanks!

Hi Craig,
Thanks for that doc. It still says:
JOB_STATE_CANCELED = 1 The job has been terminated because it was canceled.
But in the BEMCMD output I see:
JOB STATUS: 1 (Running)
It is correct - running. So is job status 1 really cancelled? Or am I not reading the command output correctly?
Please help. Thanks.
Pg. 30 of that guide states that 1 shows as successful! -1 is failed.
If you find this is a solution, please mark it as such.
