TRACE2 command — level 2

Level 2 provides the same information as level 1. In addition, it displays, for all the nested CLISTs, each CLIST statement and TSO/E command and subcommand before execution. For all the nested REXX execs, it displays each clause before execution.

Each CLIST executes with the following options in effect:

CONTROL SYMLIST CONLIST LIST MSG

SYMLIST: Display each executable statement before it is scanned for symbolic substitution. Executable statements include CLIST statements, and TSO/E commands and subcommands.
CONLIST: Display CLIST statements after symbolic substitution, but before execution.
LIST: Display TSO/E commands and subcommands after symbolic substitution, but before execution.
MSG: Display informational messages from the CLIST.

Each REXX exec executes with the following option in effect:

TRACE INTERMEDIATES

INTERMEDIATES: Display all clauses before execution and display intermediate results during evaluation of expressions and substituted names. Clauses include null clauses, labels, assignments, keyword instructions, and commands.

To activate level 2 tracing, enter TRACE2 on the Option line of an Information Center Facility menu panel. The menu panel is redisplayed with the command still on the Option line, and the following message is displayed:

CLIST or REXX exec tracing will be at level 2.  ICQGC006
