MR. Nagesh answer is coorect.
DPRTY PARAMETER:=
This parameter is used to change to assign
a dispatching priority to the job step.. Dispatching
priority is used by the statement to determine the order
inwhich tasks are to be executed.
DPRTY assign a priority to a JOB step.

syntex- DPRTY=(values1, value2).

values1 between 0-15 and specifies the priority of the
step.. value2- is also between 0-15.

DPRTY is computed as DPRTY=(value1*16)+value2.

Answer / nagesh

How about using Dprty parameter, this parameter will
assign priority to job steps , however I am not as to where
we need to code it (At job level or step level ), i guess
it should be used at step level ,,,,

Answer / sreerag p n

if you have 10 steps from that if you want to execte 10th
9th and 8th then first you specitfy cond parameter if you
specify a false cond in these 3 steps then that job will
execute(1 to 7 specify true cond) these 3 steps and after
specifying cond you give dprty.give first priority to 10th
and then 9th and 8th.
