The syntax for what? What is the process you need to follow to accomplish this? Normally, you'd edit the JCL and make the necessary changes, then submit it. Or, this is usually handled from within the job scheduling system.

Hello,

If the job executes a PROCedure, you could submit the job with a restart in step3 and add a condition code check for (0,LE).
Hope this helps,

What is the need for adding condition code (0,LE) in the restart step.
Please let me know what does it check for?

Hello,

What is the need for adding condition code (0,LE) in the restart step.
This is to prevent step4 from running.

Look here:
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/ ... 680/16.5.5?

A good manual to bookmark. . . Clicking on the little "open book" on the top left of that page will go to the Table of Contents.
Hope this helps,

Please let me know if Step03 is to be coded immediately after Jobcard or can it be anywhere in the JCL?

Also, utility program IEBEDIT can be used to select certain step(s) from a jobstream for submit. Read about it in DFSMSdfp Utilities or do a search.

Or for a nasty experiment, "label the code" you want to execute from the JCL,(such .A and .B) and at command pompt type:
SUB .A .B
.
