Here 2 scenario's are possible:
1) When dataset gets created in step 4 in case of
(DISP=NEW,CATLG,CATLG)
You need to restart from step 5:
In STEP5 use GDG1(-3).
2) When dataset doesn't get created in step 4 in case of
(DISP=NEW,CATLG,DELETE)
You need to restart from STEP4
In STEP4 use GDG1(+1),
In STEP5 use GDG1(-2).

Answer / virender
GDS being catalogued or not depends upon the disposition
(DISP) specified upon the abnormal termination of the job.
If the data sets are catalogued, you need to use GDG(-3)in
the rerun in step 5. Otherwise you can simply restart from
top.

Sorry to confuse in the Ques. I just thought we r using GDG in step4 as OLD so i suggested to be use current GDG(+0) but i came to know that it creating the new one so we use GDG(+1) in step 4 not GDG(+0).
Corrected Ans 10 as below
When dataset doesn't get created in step 4 in case of
(DISP=NEW,CATLG,DELETE)
You need to restart from STEP4
In STEP4 use GDG1(+1),
In STEP5 use GDG1(-2).
Sorry for in convenience. :)

Answer / margaret
since GDG is not cataloged until the successful end of the
step, Your best bet is to use a referback to point to the
dataset in the subsequent step. This way you will get the
appropriate dataset prior to cataloging.

Answer / atul
I believe, restarting from step 4 we need to use GDG1(0),
When dataset doesn't get created in step 4 in case of
(DISP=NEW,CATLG,DELETE)
You need to restart from STEP4
In STEP4 use GDG1(0),
In STEP5 use GDG1(-2).
Please correct me if i am wrong.
