there is a lot of differences between server and parallel jobs.
especially parallel jobs supports partioning,we can do in server jobs also by using some stages like link partitiner and collecter.but in parallel each and every stage supports pzrtitoing,more over we can parallel jobs on both smp and mpp systems where as server jobs works only on smp.
and also lot of options available in parallel.

If that was an interview question and the OP has to ask that here, then I'd hazard a guess it will be a short interview :P

Addendum to d.r.murthy's post:---
Also there is difference in the processes in backstage. Px has a PX engine runnning a OSH script, whereas Server jobs run by BASIC programs.
Summing it up, One can ask for what is the commonality between PX & Server Jobs.And the answer is
1.both are from the IBM stable currently.
2.They share common terminology in usage.
Two wrongs don't make a right. But three lefts do.
