Hi, all
suppose i have 5 steps (S1,S2,S3,S4,S5) what will happen if
cond is true or false (which of the other steps get executed)?
1) //s3 exec pgm=abc,cond=(0,le)
2) //s3 exec pgm=abc,cond=(0,le,step2)
3) In the jobcord RESTART=step3,cond=(0,le)
4) can i code COND=TRUE in jobcard, if yes what will happen?

Answer Posted / muttaiah

Nishant,

let me tell you the diff b/w these 2 cond stmts

cond=(RC,RO,stepname) & cond=(RC,RO)

Say when we code the stepname, It will look for the Return
code from that step alone.

Say if i ignore the stepname sub parm, Then what are all
the steps executed before this all those return codes are
checked with the condition specified.

1) //s3 exec pgm=abc,cond=(0,le)
In this question, since they didn't mention the number
of steps coded before s3, s3 looks for what are all the
steps run before this and compares all steps return code
with the cond if the condition is true it will bypass else
it will execute.
2) //s3 exec pgm=abc,cond=(0,le,step2)
Here they have mentioned clearly to the JCL, like look
for only return code from step2..

Hope this clears your doubt. If you have any other doubt.
