COND statement can be replaced with IF END IF statement.
In COND, if the condition is true then the step will be
bypassed.
In IF END IF, if the condition is true then the step will
get executed.

MVS now allows for an IF bracketed by an END IF around any
job step to replace the COND= syntax. Again, if the IF
statement is true, the step is bypassed.
