I have learnt through Net that Debugging a Batch job
involves


1. Submit the job with the HOLD (*YES) parameter:
SBMJOB HOLD(*YES) or Hold the job queue that before
submitting the job
by using the HLDJOBQ command.


2. Determine the job name, user, and number of the submitted
job by using the WRKSBMJOB command.


3. Type the Start Service Job command on your screen:
STRSRVJOB JOB(job name/user/number)


4. Type the Start Debug command on your screen: STRDBG


5. Release the job in the jobq. Type WRKSBMJOB and then put
a 6
beside the job to be released and press enter, or, if the
job queue was
put on hold, release the job queue with the RLSJOBQ command.


6. A display appears when the job is ready to start, saying
that you
can now begin debugging the job. Press F10 to show the
Command Entry
display.


7. Now you can start debugging by entering an Add Break
Point command:
ADDBKP



8.ENDDBG


9.ENDSRVJOB

I have learnt through Net that Debugging a Batch job involves 1. Submit the job with the HOLD..

Answer / sakthi

If you are not getting the source after entering DSPMODSRC
means then you have to check whether the source is in the
right library. SOmetimes the control may point to someother
library and hence you won't get the source to add
breakpoint.
Also make sure that you have compiled the source with
*SRCDBG or *SOURCE.

Answer / katiyar

As you already aware and mentioned above about the batch
job,just need the steps to executes in real scenario.

I debugged a RPG program in real scenario successfully.
Please use below steps.


1 HLD JOB Q

2 SBM JOB

3 STRSRVJOB

4 STRDBG PGM

5 F12(WITHOUT BRK POINT)

6 RLSJOBQ JOBQ

7 F10

8 DSPMODSRC

9 ADD BREAK POINT

10 F12

11 F12

12 ENTER

13 ENDDBG

14 ENDSRVJOB


----------------------------------------------------------
After HLDJOBQ and SBMJOB , use command WRKJOBQ <Jobq> and
select the job and note down its job name, user and job
number, which is required at step third STRSRVJOB.
---------------------------------------------------------
Give a try and revert. Hope this will help you.
