If the COND specifed in the JOB statement becomes true for any JOB step, then
a) ALL the subsequent steps of the job are bypassed
b) The JOB abends
c) The COND on the JOB statement is ignored
d) None of the above
can anyone tell me about this??
Regards
Nitya |

You can test this kind of question very simply with code similar to the following, changing the settings and tests accordingly:
//JOBNAME JOB (QQSP0000090,20),ETC.,
// COND=(4,LT)
//*
//IDCAMS EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
SET MAXCC = 2
//A EXEC PGM=IEFBR14,COND=(0,NE)
// |

I will go with "D".
The job behaviour will also depend on if there is any COND at subsequent steps. Step level COND will override JOB level condition. Also if there is EVEN or ONLY at subsequent steps, It will decide if the step will be executed or bypassed.

From the Zos JCL Reference Manual:

| When a step is bypassed because of a JOB COND parameter, all following steps in the job are bypassed. |

Mr. Sureka,
How r u doing?
I think, assuming no step has a COND parameter, it will bypass all the subsequent steps. If any of the step has a COND parameter then what ever you said will work. |
