i have 6 steps in my jcl program
after going to 5th step i want to execute 3rd step.....how can
i do it....by using(RESTART) can i do it or not?
Answer Posted / muttaiah
What i understand from question is
After executing 4th step you want to execute 3rd step.
In JCL.
We can execute steps only sequentially meaning steps mentioned in the job has to be executed in the way they are.
So as far as my knowledge this is impossible.
one way is if the job execution is stopped after 4th step. you can then execute from any step using restart.
