Answers:

Used to indicate the step, procedure step or checkpoint at which the system is to restart the job.

Syntax: RESTART=STEPNAME

If the step we, which we want to restart is in a procedure then we have to mention the procedure name also before the stepname in the restart instruction.

Syntax: RESTART=PROCEDURE-NAME.STEPNAME



if ur job has procedures and one of the step in the procedure is abended then ur restart parameter should be RESTART = PROCSTEP.STEPNAME
PROCSTEP->NAME OF THE JCL STEP THAT INVOKED THE PROC.
STEPNAME->NAME OF THE PROCSTEP WHERE U WANT EXECUTION TO START
