I have a doubt in Condition parameter. Can any body revert me ?
I searched for the related links but i cant get the exact solution.

I have a job with 50 steps. Now i want to execute only first 20 steps.
Client dont want the IEBEDIT logic and they dont accept the Null statement after the 20th step. Other than that how we cant solve this requirement.

Pls. reply me.

Thankx

Sabari,

If this is a cataloged procedure with 50 steps, then you could do something like:

Er...Mervyn,
He said, he has a job with 50 steps.

Sabari,
The really simple method (especially you are talking of NOT executing more than 50% of the steps) is to create a new job with the first 20 steps only.

Cogito,

Nobody sensible has a job with 50 steps, unless they're in a cataloged procedure.

He seems to imply he doesn't want to create a job with only 20 steps.

Then tag the first line of the job with a tag such as .A, and tag the last line needed of the job with a tag such as .B, then submit everything between the tags "SUBMIT .A .B".

Hi batu,

IEBEDIT is an utility to execute the particular step or steps , and the steps might be in a random or a sequential order. Now come to the IEBEDIT , Here you have to create a new JCL and submit the particular job which u want to executes a particular steps.

For example :-
[code:1:c0edde1e2d]
// IEBEDJOB Job (
