What is the meaning of the EXEC statement keyword, COND?
What is its syntax?
Answer Posted / suresh babu
EXEC operation is meant for executing a program or
procedure. Each EXEC is known as one step. Maximum EXEC
steps in a JCL can be: 255.
The COND parameter coded on the EXEC statement applies only
to the job step that it is coded in. The job step is
executed or bypassed, depending on the condition codes
issued by one or more prior job steps.
SYNTAX: COND=(comparison-code,condition,stepname)
