I agree with other posters that your suggested solution is not a good idea.
If you have the HLASM Toolkit product licensed on your system you can use the ASMIDF debugger to remotely debug batch jobs from a VTAM session, but using ASMIDF requires that pre-established VTAM APPL’s and LU’s are defined by your VTAM/network team. I have used it to debug assembler code and it is a pretty reasonable debugging tool (not as good as z/XDC, but reasonable nonetheless, and IMHO better than TSO TEST) IFF you can get your network team to set up the VTAM APPL’s and LU’s for you. It’s all documented in the install/reference manual for the HLASM Toolkit. IIRC, ASMIDF even has the ability to debug authorized code, but check the manual to be sure.
