Navigating through the Memory window using the history area

Every time you enter a new MEMORY command or use the G command, the current base address is moved to the right and down in the history area. The history area can hold up to eight base addresses. When the history area is full and you enter a new base address, z/OS® Debugger removes the oldest base address (located at the bottom and right-most part of the history area) from the history area and puts the new base address on the top left. The history area is persistent in a debug session.

To use the history area to navigate through the Memory window, enter the G or g command over an address in the history area, then press Enter. z/OS Debugger displays the memory dump data starting with the new address. You can clear the history area by entering the CLEAR MEMORY command. You can remove an entry in the history area by typing over the entry with the R or r command.
