Answer / suputhru

AAA BHAI LOOG, First understand the requirement.

1.we can't code COND=(0,LE) for first step.
here we can use COND=only,
2.for not execution of 9 and 10 use COND=(0,LE)

else direct answer: IEBEDIT utility.
Incude 2 to 8 stepnames.

ex:

//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=INCLUDE, STEPNAME=(STEP001,STEP002,...STEP008)
/*

Similarly, we can use TYPE=EXCLUDE to exclude the steps from exec.

Answer / vinay sonar

You can use cond parameter but it will be very tedious.
So you can use IEBEDIT
Syntax is

//SYSIN DD*
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=
(STEP2,STEP3,STEP4,STEP5,STEP6,STEP7,STEP8)
/*

Answer / anonymous

If it is confirm that step 2 to step 8 will execute normally
then what we can do is write COND=(0,EQ) for step 9 &
step10.So these last steps will be byepassed.
