Answer / sivakumar sekharannair
In the question it says that in step 4 and 5 a new
generation is created. so
Step 4 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT1(+1) This step can be
referred as in Step6.
so step 6 will refer this file as XX17.PRASAD.OUT1(+1)
generation only. because (+1) will become current version
(0) only after the execution of the entire job.
Similarly
Step 5 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT2(+1)
so step 7 will refer this file as XX17.PRASAD.OUT2(+1).
If the job abends in step 6. the files created in step 4
and 5 will become current version (0).
so now the 7th step will refer the output of step 5 as (0)
i.e.XX17.PRASAD.OUT2(0).
Note:
I assume the files created by step4 and step5 are different.

Ex:
Step 4 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT(+4) This step can be
referred as in Step6.
Step 5 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT(+5) This step can be
referred as in Step7.
If the Job bends in 6the step so already 5th step has been
processed successfully. So we can restart from the step6
then we can refer the 5th step output to 7th step input as
current version.
After abend:
Step 5 output: XX17.PRASAD.OUT(+5) This step can be
referred as XX17.PRASAD.OUT(0) in Step7 after abends the
job.
**** Please let me know if it is wrong.
