Error Options: Select ALL, ERROR, or NONE. This option specifies what conditions need to be met for the debugger to gain control.

Prompt Options: Select PROMPT or NOPROMPT. This option specifies whether to start the debugger immediately after Language Environment® initializes.

Advanced Debug Options, Connect to a specific client: Choose this option to override the connection to the current client. Selecting this option enables the User ID, IP, and Port fields.

Advanced Debug Options, User ID: Specify a user ID to connect to the debug manager. If you specify a user ID, the IP and Port fields are disabled.

Advanced Debug Options, IP and Port: If you do not specify a user ID, you can specify the IP address and port of the client to connect. Specify the TCP/IP port number that is listening for debug sessions on your workstation. The default is 8001.

Language Environment options: Specify any additional Language Environment (LE) options that your program might need.

For additional information about Language Environment options, see the z/OS Language Environment Programming Reference or contact your systems programmer.
