  • COND
  • ELSE
  • IF
  • RETURN
The COND parameter allows you to specify an action if a step returns a non-zero return code

  • IF
  • WHILE
The COND statement in JCL is used to conditionally execute steps in sequential jobs.

To execute a step only when a specific condition is met, you can use the _______ statement.

  • COND
  • EXEC COND
  • IF
  • STEP
The IF statement is used to execute a step based on a specific condition

In JCL, _______ is a condition that must be met before a job is allowed to execute.

  • EXECUTION_CONDITION
  • JOB_CONDITION
  • JOB_CONTROL_CONDITION
The correct term is COND, representing a condition that must be met for the job to proceed with execution.

To specify multiple conditions for the ELSE statement in JCL, you can use the _______ parameter.

  • COND
  • EXPR

What is the difference between COND=ONLY and COND=EVEN in JCL?

  • COND=EVEN
  • COND=EVEN is stricter
  • COND=ONLY
  • COND=ONLY is stricter
COND=EVEN checks for even return codes while COND=ONLY checks for only the specified return code

What does the COND parameter in a JCL job control statement determine?

  • Condition codes of steps
  • Execution time of the job
  • Exit codes of previous steps
  • Job priority
The COND parameter determines whether to execute a step based on condition codes of previous steps
