Restart papameter is used to restat a step from the
abendining step.
assume that jcl has 5 steps.You have submitted the job.And
the job was abended at step4.so , u need to execute the
step from step4.here note that 3 steps are executed
successfully.Here u can code RESTART=step4 on the job card
and submit the jcl.Now the job will skip the first 3 steps
and starts executing from the step #4.
Hope this helps

Answer / neethu
yes, also i would like to share one more point,if we did
not give restart it will restart from step1 itself. incase
if it is abbends in step1 itself we dnt need to give
restart coz as default it will always restart from step1.
