For a JOB statement TIME parameter of TIME=NOLIMIT or TIME=1440, the system nullifies any TIME parameters on EXEC statements as well as the default TIME values. All steps within the job will have unlimited processor time.

For a JOB statement TIME parameter other than TIME=NOLIMIT or TIME=1440, the system sets the time limit for each step to one of the following:
  • The step time limit specified on the EXEC statement TIME parameter or the job time remaining after execution of previous job steps, whichever is smaller.
  • If no EXEC TIME parameter was specified: the default time limit, or the job time remaining after execution of previous steps, whichever is smaller.
