Answer / pradeep
There is a better way of doing it as given below:
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP0017)
/*
Here, I have used the utility, IEBEDIT to execute only the
required step. You can also, given the syntax,
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP0017,STEP0021,STEP0099) to
execute the reqd steps only.
Similarly, we can use TYPE=EXCLUDE to exclude the steps
from exec.

Hi,
Code as: RESTART=PROCNAME.STEP17,COND=(4095,NE)
This executes 17th step only and no other step. For
successful execotuin, you will recieve message 'STEP17
PROCNAME - ENDED BY CC 0000 - TIME=nn' in JESMSGLG in SPOOL.

Answer / mohammad
code restart=17,cond=(00,le),
cond=(4095,ge) on job card.
This will execute only 17th step.

Answer / anurag singh
At Job card level write Restart=step17(ddname) and put null
indicator (//) at the end of 17th step , so that while
executing the job will start form 17th step and after that
it will find the null indicator , so job execution will be
terminated.

In addition to answer 5, RESTART parameter can be coded as:
RESTART=PRCNAME.STEP17,COND=(4095,GT) and another one has
already been mentioned in answer # 3.
