Launching a debug session for z/OS batch applications

You can launch a debug session for z/OS batch applications by using existing JCL.

  • Use the z/OS Batch Application using existing JCL launch configuration when you have existing JCL to run your batch application.
You can use launch configurations to start debug and code coverage sessions for your batch applications without having to modify existing JCL or create new JCL. Launch configurations can be opened from the following places:
  • The toolbar via the debug and code coverage buttons.
  • The Debug As or Code Coverage As menus.
