z/OS MVS JCL Reference
SA23-1385-00

*
Indicates that the system is to restart execution (1) at the beginning of or within the first job step or (2), if the first job step calls a cataloged or in-stream procedure, at the beginning of or within the first procedure step.
stepname
Indicates that the system is to restart execution at the beginning of or within a job step. If stepname refers to an EXEC statement that invokes a procedure, the step name of the step within the procedure must also be specified.
stepname.procstepname
Indicates that the system is to restart execution at the beginning of or within a step of a cataloged procedure. Stepname identifies the EXEC statement of the job step that calls the procedure; procstepname identifies the EXEC statement of the procedure step. The step identified by procstepname must contain the PGM keyword rather than invoke a procedure.
checkid
Specifies the name of the checkpoint at which the system is to restart execution. This checkpoint must be in the job step specified in the first subparameter.

Omit checkid to request restart at the beginning of the specified job step.

When the name contains special characters, enclose it in apostrophes. Code each apostrophe that is part of the name as two consecutive apostrophes. For example, code CHPT'1 as 'CHPT''1'.
