Choosing a method to start IBM z/OS Debugger Utilities

Your users can start IBM® z/OS® Debugger Utilities by doing one of the following methods:

Method 1: Enter the EXEC 'hlq.SEQAEXEC(EQASTART)' command. This is the default method.
Method 2: Enter the EQASTART command. To use this method, you must do the following steps, which are described in this section:
  1. Include or copy the IBM z/OS Debugger Utilities and Common Components data sets to your system's TSO logon data sets. To add the data sets, do one of the following alternatives:
    • Include the data sets listed in Table 1, Table 2, or Table 3 into the DD concatenations specified in the tables.
    • Copy2 the members of the data sets listed in Table 1, Table 2, or Table 3 to a data set allocated to the DD concatenation specified in the table.

    For either alternative, the data sets you include into the DD concatenations must match the national language you chose in Changing the default and allowable values in EQACUIDF.

  2. Edit the EQASTART1 member of the hlq.SEQAEXEC data set and set the Inst_NATLANG_commonlib variable to ENU, UEN, JPN, or KOR depending on the national language you chose in Changing the default and allowable values in EQACUIDF.
  3. Inform your users how to specify a language other than the one selected in step 2. If your users need to start z/OS Debugger in a language other than the default, they need to add the NATLANG(xxx) parameter to the EQASTART command.
