Hello friends,

My JOB consists of 100 steps.

I want to execute from step30 to step60 only.

How to code the COND parameter?

Hi Vani,

For all your queries posted in last few mins...

1> Should have chosen proper forum to post question.
2> Shoul have given proper subject line.
3> Should have made SEARCH in the forum reg the question.

But None of the rule followed.

Well, Give RESTART=S030 & code a NULL stmt (// )after S060.

This is the easiest you can do.

Regards,

Priyesh.

Hi,
By using the IBEDIT utility we can execute the particular steps
Pgm=IEBEDIT,select=(step30,step60).

We're all curious. Please post the JCL for this 100 step job.

Hi dneufarth
As priyesh.agrawal said, the easiest way is(change ur job percentage is very less compare with other solutions)here. The changes are shown in Green colour.

//JOBXXXX JOB (960,TEST,,,,9900),ABC, TEST',
// MSGCLASS=T,NOTIFY=VANI,CLASS=L,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),
// RESTART=STEP30
//*------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE ABC.TEST.TEST001 NONVSAM
SET MAXCC=0
//*
?..
?. .
??.
??

//*------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
//STEP60 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE ABC.TEST.TEST0060 NONVSAM
SET MAXCC=0
//

Hi
In my previous post, the colour is not existing properly, See below with blue colour.

//JOBXXXX JOB (960,TEST,,,,9900),ABC, TEST',
// MSGCLASS=T,NOTIFY=VANI,CLASS=L,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),
[size=12]// RESTART=STEP30 [/size]
//*------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE ABC.TEST.TEST001 NONVSAM
SET MAXCC=0
//*
?..
?. .
??.
??

//*------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
//STEP60 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE ABC.TEST.TEST0060 NONVSAM
SET MAXCC=0
//

Anbudan,

I know how to do it. Just wanted to see a production job with 100 steps as it must be difficult to manage and restart upon failure. I've never seen a job with that many steps as QA group (me a my last few jobs) would put a halt to it.

It also seems a bit simplistic to say just use RESTART and // when no one knows about which datasets/databases need to be restored or whether a needed input might have been PASSED rather than cataloged.

If it's a hypothetical, then poster should say so.
