I have a JCL with 100 steps. I want run the Alternate steps
in the JCL ( Like 2 ,4,6,8 etc.. ). How can I acheive this
scenario? If It is by Cond Parameter can you provide the
Condition code for that?

Hi ,
cond=even means if previous steps are terminated abnormally
that time also this step should be executed . it does not
mean to execute the steps in any specific order( even 2,4,6)

Answer / sathish kumar
In job card give restart=stepname2
from stepname3 to consecutive ODD steps give the below
condition
cond=(4095,GE)
This will execute the steps stepname2,4,6,8.... and
bypasses the odd steps.

Answer / alla srikanth
small change*** no need to mention cond=EVEN on on job
statement
specify restart=step2 on job statement i.e,
execution begings at step no 2 and every step from step2
onwards executed.
for odd number jobsteps specify cond=(o,le)(condition is
ture for all return codes hence steps with this cond code is
bypassed)
hence begin at step2 and odd no steps are bypassed i.e even
steps are executed

Answer / rekha
In JOB card give Restart=(name of the second step).
After that for every ODD numbered step give the cond as
COND=(0,GE) because the Condition Code will starts from 0
onwards,so every odd step will be skiped and only the even
steps will be executed.

specify restart=step2,cond=even on job statement i.e,
execution begings at step no 2 and every step from step2

bypassed)
hence begin at step2 and odd no steps are bypassed i.e even

Hi, My dataset have multiple records, say 100. I want to start copy records only after a record contain a specific value that may be in a specific position. Secondly I want to stop copying rest records if certain record contains a specific value. Can it be done using SORT/ICETOOL utilities?
