JCL to print IMS Connect RECORDER output

IMS Connect provides a line trace function to capture data that is received from and sent to a client.

The line trace contains a copy of the first 670 bytes of the data as it is passed to the user message exit and upon return from the user message exit. Line traces are intended for use in problem resolution.

Use the RECORDER command to activate and terminate the line trace function.

The following sample JCL illustrates how to print the line trace data set:

//IDCAMS   JOB  JOB 1,IDCAMS,MSGLEVEL=1,CLASS=K,TIME=1440
//SELECT   EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//DD1      DD   DSNAME=HWSRCDR,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD   *
  PRINT    INFILE(DD1)
