There's a way, with ICETOOL, to restart from a particular sort?
I mean...I try to explain my question better.

If I've two large sort and the second end with an abend that can be both for space(B/E37) or DYNALLOC option: how can I restart my job, after an add of disk or a enlarge of unit in dynamic allocation, skipping so the first large sort without touch the jcl?

Without touching the JCL? Well, that would require magic since there would be nothing to indicate that you wanted to run the job any differently the second time.

However, if you want to bypass the first SORT operator and just run the second SORT operator, you can just comment out the first operator temporarily, e.g.

First run:

SORT FROM(IN1) TO(OUT1) USING(CTL1)
SORT FROM(IN2) TO(OUT2) USING(CTL2)

Second run (just run the second SORT):

*SORT FROM(IN1) TO(OUT1) USING(CTL1)
SORT FROM(IN2) TO(OUT2) USING(CTL2)
