4th step output is as input for the 6th step & 5th step
output is used as input in the 7th step. How they are
refered as in the 6th & 7th steps?
If the job abends in 6th step then how the 5th step output
is refered in 7th step?

Answer Posted / suputhru

4 & 5 step creates a new generation
STEP004 (+1) o/p----- STEP006 (+1)
STEP005 (+2) o/p----- STEP007 (+2)

STEP006 (+1)
STEP007 (+2)

if the Job ABENDS, it means 4th 5th steps executed suceesfully.
STEP004 (-1) o/p-------------------- STEP006
STEP005 (0) o/p-------------------- STEP007

Restart the Job from 6th Step & refer GDG Versions like

STEP006 (-1)
STEP007 (0)
