IMSRXTRC
The IMSRXTRC command is used primarily
for debugging. It controls the tracing action taken (that is, how
much trace output through SYSTSPRT is sent to the user) while running
a REXX program.

Usage
The level variable name can be a REXX variable or a digit, and valid values are from 0 to 9. The initial value at EXEC start-up is 1 unless it is overridden by the user Exit. Traced output is sent to the DDNAME SYSTSPRT. See IMS Version 15.3 Exit Routines for more information on the IMS adapter for REXX exit routine.
The
IMSRXTRC command can be used in
conjunction with or as a replacement for normal REXX tracing (TRACE). - Level
