Hi,

My JCL has the below steps.

STEP01

STEP02, COND=(4,LE,STEP01)

STEP03, COND=(4,LE,STEP02)

STEP04, COND=(4,LE,STEP03)

I want a step to execute, only if the previous step's RC = 0 or 4.
But in the above case, when step 02 is skipped because step01's RC was 8.

since, RC of Step02 was FLUSH. The step03 and step04 got executed.

How to resolve this,

if we give only COND(4,LE) will it skip if any of the step's RC is more than 4. Is that correct ?

Easy enough to try out with no fear of damage. Three IDCAMS steps and you're there. SET MAXCC to 8 in first step, see if no 3 runs.

Use IF-THEN-ELSE-ENDIF
