Answer / thavasi

Since STP1 and STP2 are completed... u need to override the
GDG versions for STP3 and STP4 as you want to restart from STP3.


//STP3.OUTDD A(+1),DISP=NEW
//STP4.INDD A(-1),DISP=OLD

My JCL contains four steps //STP1 A(+1), DISP = NEW //STP2 A(+2), DISP = NEW //STP3 A(+3), DISP..

Answer / naveenkumar m

For example:

if the code executes without any issues the following will be created
step 1 creates G001V00 (A(+1)), DISP=NEW
step 2 creates G002V00 (A(+2)), DISP=NEW
Step3 Creates G003V00 (A(+3)), DISP=NEW
Step4 utilizes G001V00 as DISP is OLD and we refer A(+1) here.

so whatever the content created in step 1in G001V00 will be replaced by the content created in step4.

When the job fails, G001V00 and G002V00 are already created.

so when you restart the step3 you should replace the file (+3) by (+1) in step3 as now the current version is G002V00 not G001V00.

if you don't change the version (+1) that means that you are referring to G003V00 which is created in step3.

Actual code is replacing the file in step1 not step3.

So you need to replace the file version in step 4 from (+1) to (-1). so that it will refer the file created in step1.

Hope this is very clear.. if you don't get even now, feel free to email @ mndlsoft@gmail.com

Answer / lalit

you just need to do

//STP3 A(+1), DISP = NEW

as this is the latest generation which is going to create
once you restart the job from this step...
