How can we execute only one step in a job

Answer / sravanthi
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

Answer / mohammad
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.

Answer / suresh
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)

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

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

restart = stepname, cond=(0,le)
can achieve this in multiple ways..!

Answer / ankur
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
