My JCL has 4 steps that execute PROC’s P1, P2, P3 and P4 as
shown below

//P1 EXEC PROC=P1
//P2 EXEC PROC=P2
//P3 EXEC PROC=P3
//P4 EXEC PROC=P4

There are four steps S1, S2, S3 and S4 in each PROC’s (i.e.
P1, P2, P3 and P4)

I want to execute only step S2 of PROC P2 and no other
steps or PROC’s. How do you achieve this?

Answer / mr. cooooool

Hi...........
We can do like dis:

//COOLJCL JOB NOTIFY=&SYSUID,RESTART=P2.S2
//P1 EXEC PROC=P1
//P2 EXEC PROC=P2
//

WE NEED ALSO TO CODE COND PARAMETER FOR S3,S4
LIKE THIS

//S3 EXEC PGM=PGM1,COND=(0,LE)
//S4 EXEC PGM=PGM2,COND=(0,LE)

THIS WILL CAUSE EXCUTION OF JOB WILL START FROM
S2(STEP) OF P2(PROC) AND THAN REMAINIG STEP(S3,S4)
WILL BYPASS.

THANKS

Answer / harsha

1 Give Restart parameter as 'RESTART=Jobstep.Procstep' on
JOB card. In this case it would be RESTART=P2.S2. Just
after step S2, give NULL statement or COND=(0,LE).
2 User IEBEDIT.
STEPNAME=(P2.S2)

Answer / challa srinivas

Just use restart parameter in job card. as restart=(p4.s2) after this give null statement in the job or in step 3 of proc4 give COND = (0,LE,s2). Please make sure that step 2 should execute successfully else the job will start executing from step3.
