Answer / muttaiah

yaa, it's invalid as per the syntax of cond.

Syntax:

Cond=(code,Relational Op,stepname)
code - 0 to 4096, RO - LT/GT/LE/GE/EQ,NE
If you give stepname say step1 it will check for that
step alone, If you want to check all the prior executed
steps ignore stepname.
Cond = Even or only
This we will use only in case of any abends.
