Hi,
I have a job with below steps
step-1
step-2
--------------------
step-3 should run only when step-2 RC is 8
step-4 should run only if step-2 RC is 0
step-5 should run only if step-2 RC is 0
-------------------
step-6 should run only if step-5 RC is 8
step-7 should run only if step-5 RC is 0
step-8 should run only if step-5 RC is 0
Please help me out in setting up the conditions for the above steps.
I just want to set the conditions.
Thanks |

Have you read the JCL manual to see how COND= works ?
Have you considered IF/THEN/ELSE as an alternate method ? |

in step 3 put this COND parm:
| Code: |
| // .....COND=(8,EQ,STEP2) |
you can figure out the rest, right? |

Sorry, made a mistake here, the above code means, do NOT execute the step if step2's rc=8. If you want the step to be run only when step2's rc=8, use the following:
| Code: |
| // .....COND=(8,NE,STEP2) |
This means do not execute the step when step2's rc != 8... |

| Thanks for considering IF/THEN/ELSE/ENDIF over COND. As Enrico said, your successors will appreciate it. |
