Answer / prashanth
In a job max no of step is 255 ,if we want more than this
we have to submit one more jcl with in the same job
by using 'internal reader' its a part of JES
ex..
// step1 exec...
.
.
.
//step255 exec pgm=IEBGENER
//sysut1 dd dsn=another jcl
//sysut2 dd dsn= (*.INTRDER)
//sysprint dd sysout=*

Answer / kumar swamy
Prasanths answer is absolutely correct, but so many are using more than one jobs indirectly, you have to recall the question. And one more thing job steps are counted including the procedure steps which is in that job.

Answer / brian
I don't suppose that practical versus possible is an option
here but it seems like a heavily loaded batch job to me.
