Here 2 scenario's are possible:
1) When dataset gets created in step 4 in case of
(DISP=NEW,CATLG,CATLG)
You need to restart from step 5:
In STEP5 use GDG1(-3).
2) When dataset doesn't get created in step 4 in case of
(DISP=NEW,CATLG,DELETE)
You need to restart from STEP4
In STEP4 use GDG1(+1),
In STEP5 use GDG1(-2).
