Answer / koti156
the cond parameter is used to control the execution of subsequent job steps,depending on the condition code that is returned for a prior step.

suppose a job has two steps.the first step backups file,and the second step deletes the source file after a successful backup. obviously if the file is not successfully backup it should not be deleted.the cond can be used to control the the execution of the second step depend on th e value returned by the first.
