The input for second step is already created, solve the
abend and restart from the abended step

Answer / madhuri tungal
when the job abended in step 2 then while restarting the
job from step2 the GDG has to be referred using (0) i.e
current generation insted of (+1) as in earlier case before
abend.
Please correct me if in case i am wrong....
Thanks,
Madhuri.

In my opinion it depends of the abend.
Why was the cause of STEP2 abend? If it was because a bad
file created on STEP1 we should correct the program that
generates the file (on STEP1), uncatlg the bad GDG created,
and then resubmit the job from STEP1.
If the STEP2 cancelled and the input file is good, we should
fix the STEP2 and restart the job from STEP2 using GDG(0).

It Depends on what type of restart it is, if no checkpoint
or UC1RMS is present, as Madhuri has suggested, we need to
make the GDG version as 0 and procedd, in case checkpoint
or UC1RMS is present, then we directly restart from the
abended step.

Pls code GDG(0) and the data set at step 2 is created, you need to take care of this as well (may or may not created).
I am assuming created, then delete is first:
Couple of options are:
1. Manual Delete and JCL will create it again as //STEP2 ......... DD DSN=.....DISP=(new,catlg,catlg{if delete was coded hear you may ignore my steps})
2. Use IEBGBER at step0 to delete previously created d/st by DISP=(MOD,delete,delete).
Pls check, if my response is not clear let me know.
