we can...it's possible

but how MR.Prasanth ????

with con parameter

hi,  laxhmi,
 we can execute only one step in a job by using
 cond parameter, IEBEDIT utility program,

  thanks & regards

  prashanth

We cannot specify COND parameter for the first step in JCL.
So if there are many steps in JCL, we need to restart the
job from the required step. A null statement at the end of
this step can be given for running this step alone. If any
other step also need sto be run, then we can go for the COND
parameter instead of the null statement

in the proc call statement, EXEC PROC, we need to use 
stepname.COND=(0,LE) option

Hi,

 Use cond=(0,LE) in jobcard and also specify 
Restart=Stepname,the step you want to execute.

HI THIS IS ANKUR.

I THINK IF WE SECIFIED

COND=ONLY AT FIRST STEP.

RE:MR.Ankur is right.

COND=EVEN/ONLY in the jobcard will in anyways execute the 
first step.

I think we have to use restart and cond parameter 
at job card.i.e restart=stapname,cond(00,le).
This will execute only the step u need.

hi ankur,
 
i am really oppose u r answer cond=only previous step 
abnormally execution mens this step executed.otherwsie not 
possible.
using iebedit utility is oneway.
another one is restart=stepname end of the step give null 
stmts.

hi 
kamal.

i know that by IEBEDIT IT can be done....

//sysin dd *
  edit type=exclude, stepname=(step01)
//

but we should try with cond...

i know  cond = only in first skip or flush the 1st step ..

just check it...
bye

Hi,

This can be achieved by two ways.
1. As Sravanthi mentioned - A null (/*) statement at the 
end of this step can be given for running this step alone.

2. By using COND parameter in the second step. Like
//STEP2   EXEC PGM=EXAMPLE,COND=(0,LE,STEP1)

as per Sravanthi's answer.. A null (/*) statement at the 
end of this step can be given for running this step alone 
but we have to give restart in job.


suresh,the second method that u have suggested its not 
correct, coz if u have more than one step in the same job 
then u have to code the same COND parameter for each step.
this will stop the execution of 2 step...

Assume that job has 100 steps ... want to execute only the 
step 89 then

just give the following stmt in job card..
restart = stepname, cond=(0,le)

can achieve this in multiple ways..!

Hi,

Better we can give the true condition i.e COND=(0,LE) in 
all the steps that we don't want to execute.

Please suggest if am wrong

1. restart the step in the jobcard
2. give a null // at the end of the step. 

Thanks,
