Tom,
z/XDC can be used to debug many System SVCs as well as any/all user
SVCs. It also can be used to debug PC routines (all types and
environments) and SRB routines, system and product exit routines, and
pretty much anything else that runs in z/OS.

The best way is to run under z/VM. Set all processors off line
except for one, and you can step through the code. I'm never used
z/XDC to debug an SVC. It would be interesting to hear what Dave
Cole has to say.

Subject: Re: Debug SVC
You really need a special class of debugger for SVC and other
"system level" functions, such a PC code and SRB code. Many seem to
love z/XDC from ColeSoft. I have no experience with it. I am doing
some testing of another product, but I don't think it's available
yet. So I won't mention the name.
