Want to Nullify the Condition Parameter of a STEP

chenchi · Posted: Mon Jun 21, 2004 2:29 pm

i am calling a procedure within a job.that procedure has 6 steps and the 4th step contains a condition.i want to execute that entire procedure (including the 4th step by nullifing that condition)...how..?

I think that the condition is raised with previous steps' return code.
you can try to force the return code ..

or modify the proc.

what do u mean by nullifying 4th step ?

Can you include the code for the PROC, especially the fourth step? The solution depends on the format used.

hi

here we r not nullifying the 4th step ...we have to nullify the condition included in the 4th step..i.e condition should not take part in the execution.

what is that condition you need to nullify there. Better you give the 4th step and the condition. So that it will be clear.

here suppose we want to call that procedure from another job that time if we don't want that condition and we want to execute all the 6 steps ...that time we need to nullify the condition.

Put an override for the proc step through your job. It's as simple as that.

Hi,
you can nullify that cond parameter on 4th step using parameter parameter override
i am giving the solution
When u call the procedure, suppose the procedure name is 'proc1'
at that time code like following
//step1 exec proc=proc1,cond.step4=
do not assign any value during override
it'll nullify cond parameter on step4 particularly for this execution only

check it out

SPECIFY COND.STEP4=(SOME CONDITION)

THIS WILL OVERRIDR THE COND OF STEP4

IF I AM WRONG SOMEWHERE PLEASE CORRECT ME

THANK YOU

Hi Pawan,
Yes as per your coding It'll override the cond parameter for that particular execution of the procedure;they'll not be permanent changes

like ucan override the condition by doing set maxcc=0
so the maximum condition code from the step3 is nullified and the maxcc for the step 4 is nullified

And how exactly would that be done?

hi ,

1)obviously first should run in JCL, add the null command after the first step , that's it nullifies all other steps in the JCl.,
2) using the cond. we can do this code COND=ONLY.
if the Step executes succesfully the above cond will work.if not code the below one

3) Using the cond. COND=(4,GT,Step01)

Thanks and Regards,

Do not put any condition in step 1 so it will get executed and put condition (0,LE,STEP1) in all other steps so any way this condition will become true and no other step will get execute.

Hi vidhiarjaria,

I think the method stated by Cheryala in the post immediately preceeding yours takes a lot less time and poses lees risk:

"COND=(0,LE)" on your job card vs. coding "(0,LE,STEP1) on every step in the JOB.

The Job COND is tested before each step COND in each step (except the 1st), so there's no need to change the step CONDs.

Yes, you can have a restart and cond both on the same job card and this would do what you want.
