COND statement can be replaced with IF END IF statement.
In COND, if the condition is true then the step will be
bypassed.
In IF END IF, if the condition is true then the step will
get executed.

True, COND parameter are a bit complex to write and
Understand. So they are promoting the use of
IF/THEN/ELSE/ENDIF instead of using COND parameters.

Answer / guest
MVS now allows for an IF bracketed by an END IF around any
job step to replace the COND= syntax. Again, if the IF
statement is true, the step is bypassed.
