If a job has 3 steps and step 1 and step 3 should get
executed and step 2 should not get executed irrespective of
the return code from the previous steps. How can it be done?

Answer Posted / mr. cooooool

We can use condition parameter for step2.
//JOBCARD
//STEP1 EXEC=PGM1
//STEP2 EXEC=PGM2,COND=(0,LE,STEP1)
//STEP3 EXEC=PGM3
//

THANKS
