EXPLICITDEBUG

The IBM® z/OS Debugger Reference and Messages describes how you use the SET EXPLICITDEBUG command to enable explicit debug mode in z/OS® Debugger. However, before you can enter the SET EXPLICITDEBUG command, z/OS Debugger has already processed the initial load module and loaded the debug data for the compile units it contains. If you want to enable explicit debug mode prior to processing the initial load module, use the EQAOPTS EXPLICITDEBUG command.

The following diagram describes the syntax of the EXPLICITDEBUG command:
