I suspect that IBM Debugger is for applications debugging instead of system. It's probably closer to the TSO TEST implementation and missing many of the important zXDC features. > I'd rather set slip traps and get a dump that IPCS can read. I suggest looking at CBTTAPE.ORG to see if someone has published some form of debugger. It shouldn't be difficult to write a basic debugger using SLIP, TSO CONSOLE and IPCS. It would definitely be better than TSO TEST. Setup IPCS to access all ASID's when using active allows you to display storage. Write an MPF EXIT that issues a WTOR for the SLIP messages. Use TSO CONSOLE to manage SLIPs and reply to the WTOR's. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
