Hello,
Look up RESTART in the JCL manual linked to from this site (top of the page, there is a "Manuals" button).
For your example, you would "restart" the job in step3. |

hi,
Use restart parameter in the job card.
Additionally if u want to run only the third step then place a null statement after the step in the proc.
thanks |

Hello,
A null statement should not be put in a proc.
The RESTART is the way to accomplish this requirement. |

you will find it in the manuals 
Any way here it is
| Quote: |
Syntax:
RESTART={* }
{stepname }
{stepname.procstepname }
{stepname.procstepname,checkid}
'*' says the job will restart at the top or within the first job
step
'stepname' names the step in the job where restart is to done
'procstepname' is the name of the procedure step (within the proc
invoked by job step 'stepname') for which restart is to done
'checkid' is the number of the checkpoint where MVS should restart
execution. If the 'checkid' contains special characters, it must be
enclosed in apostrophes. |
For your functionality it will be
RESTART=STEP03 |

Hi Suresh,
Try putting this in the jobcard:
RESTART=STEPx.PSTEP3,COND=(0,LE)
This executes the 3rd procstep ONLY; nothing before, nothing after.
The restart= will begin the job's execution at your procstep 3.
The COND= prevents any step in the job (except the 1st executed step) from executing if that step returns ANY RC whatsoever. |
