Stage II: Processing the Job Stream

In stage II, the job stream produced during stage I is processed as follows:

A complete listing of stage II functions by job and step is shown in Appendix C, SIP Stage II Job Summary.

The SIP stage II job stream must be run in the exact sequence that it was produced from SIP stage I. This is because of the sequential dependency of the individual stage II jobs and steps. Appendix C, SIP Stage II Job Summary shows the interdependencies for the various jobs and steps. In general, stage II error recovery requires complete reexecution of both SIP stage I and stage II. Individual jobs and steps may be reexecuted if the problem that caused the original failure is not a result of stage I input errors (for example, stage II hardware errors).

The completion of stage II results in a system that reflects what was specified in the SIP macro instructions. For example, functionally dependent segments that are not required are excluded from the system.
