Can a job have only steplib and no joblib ?..

Answer / saroja kolli

Yes. We can have only steplib without a joblib.

But in such case, if the Job contains several steps then in
everystep of the job STEPLIB should be mentioned.

STEPLIB refers to the step in which it is mentioned and the
JOBLIB refers to all the steps in the job.

When STEPLIB and the JOBLIB both are mentioned then STEPLIb
overrides JOBLIB.

Answer / pankaj.g

Hi Manikandan.d,

Your answer is correct but we can put Steplib anywhere in
the step. It is not necessary to put the steplib immediate
after Exec step.

Correct me if I am wrong?
