Hi,

I have two questions

1. Is there any command available to skip any intermediate STEP or STEPS while running any JCL?

2. Assume if we have aPROC (procedure) having same step name & dd name for as two steps. Any option available for give override?

Thanks in advance

Hi Raj,

Here's some ans:

1. Use the COND param or the IF/THEN/ELSE/ENDIF facility.

2. Change the PROC to use unique stepnames.

Hi,

With reference to your reply, Just clarify will you do with out ediitng PROC.

My requirement is, We should not edit the PROC for SKIP as well as dupe STEP NAMES

Thanks,
Raj

It would be helpful (and probably elicit more replies) if you FULLY explain the problem you wish to have solved. If you do that you can avoid time wasting exchanges such as we're having here.

Another ques: was this requirement passed on to you, or was it circumstances, or did you devise it for the sake of this exercise?

In any case, please provide as many specifics as possible. They can result in a more timely resolution to your problem.
