The restart / recovery steps are going to be processing dependent, to be determined by your job-flow and application processing. Typically, batch applications are not typically written the same, with some exceptions. A straightforward, operational type ABEND such as an SB37 ABEND could be recovered in various approaches, again, depending on the input/output file(s) and whether your job-step actually generates a step-level ABEND, not a COND CODE result. A user-program error may involve a replacement module, such as a JCL concatenation (test library ahead of production) change. Again, the approach would be application-dependent. Honestly, this is Production Control Jockey 101. Possibly, you have supporting application programmers and peer-staff for your mentoring / knowledge-transfer, hopefully?
