IF WE GIVE COND on step3 then, What does the following mean ?
And Just adding to that, All the below COND are VALID as per
the specifications.
(i) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2) ---(AND/OR ?)
(ii) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2, ONLY),
(iii) COND = (8,LT,step1,ONLY) will it execute only if this
condition is true or only if step1 ABENDS ?
(iv) COND = (8,LT,step1,step2,EVEN),
(v) COND = (8,LT,step1,EVEN) ?

Answer Posted / muttaiah

yaa, it's invalid as per the syntax of cond.

Syntax:

Cond=(code,Relational Op,stepname)
code - 0 to 4096, RO - LT/GT/LE/GE/EQ,NE
If you give stepname say step1 it will check for that
step alone, If you want to check all the prior executed
steps ignore stepname.
Cond = Even or only
This we will use only in case of any abends.
