//step3 exec=xxxx

//step4 exec=yyyy,cond=(0,Le,step3)
//..
//step5 exec=zzzz
Restart =step 3 executes step3.Step 3 gives some return
code.In step 4,the test is passed as 0 is less than step
3.So step 4 is bypassed and is not executed. and the
program is responsible for issuing the return code that
was not even loaded in the main storage.
The result: no return code can exist
In the steps that follow any test of COND parameter tat
attempts to interrogate this non-existent return
code will be ignored . Step 5 will be e executed.

Answer / syntel
Sorry,my previous solution was wrong.Infact it is correct
if you don't want to skip step 4th step
The correct solution for this is
to use COND paramater.

The below given code provides the exact solution,
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=EXCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP003,STEP005)

Answer / rudolf
This jcl is the correct answer, this is used to run a batch
job in production environment.
*** if the JCL will run step3 and step5 condcode is 0
while step4 condcode is flush means it will not run.
//jobname jobcardxx
// xxxxx
// xxxxx
// xxxxx
//..
//..
//step3 exec pgm=xxx,cond=(4,lt)
//....
//....
//step4 exec pgm=xxx,cond=(0,le)
//....
//....
//step5 exec pgm=xxx,cond=(4,lt)
//....
//....

Answer / sivakumar sekharannair
1)Give restart=step03 in job card
2)in step04 give cond=(0,le)
3)step05 no condition neeeded
sample jcl is given below
//AAUT001D JOB ,'TEST',MSGLEVEL=(1,1),CLASS=C,MSGCLASS=H,
// NOTIFY=&SYSUID,RESTART=STEP003
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=AUT0EMP
//EMPLOY1 DD DSN=PROGMR.SBPD.EMP.DATA.SAMPLE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//STEP002 EXEC
PGM=AUT0EMP
//EMPLOY1 DD
DSN=PROGMR.SBPD.EMP.DATA.SAMPLE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD
SYSOUT=*
//STEP003 EXEC PGM=AUT0EMP
//EMPLOY1 DD DSN=PROGMR.SBPD.EMP.DATA.SAMPLE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//STEP004 EXEC PGM=AUT0EMP,COND=
(0,LE)
//EMPLOY1 DD
DSN=PROGMR.SBPD.EMP.DATA.SAMPLE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD

Answer / rajesh
We use the COND Parameter for By pass the 5th step &
RESTART=Step Name in the job Card.
// Jobname Job Acc.info,Programmer
name,..............,Restart=Step3
//Step4 EXEC PGM=Program Name,COND=(0,LE,Step3)
//Step5 EXEC PGM=Program Name
//

Answer / name
It depends on the situation. I recommend against using
IEBEDIT to alter the JCL. Use of IF ... THEN is more
perspicuous than use of the COND parm.
