Testing Procedure

To test a REXX program with the DEBUG parameter from within CA Automation Point

  1. Open the Merged Messages window.
  2. Choose Cmdarea.
  3. Choose Start REXX program or script.
  4. Enter the name of the REXX program (and any necessary arguments) with the DEBUG parameter.
  5. Jump to the AXCREXX window to view the REXX trace messages.
  6. Watch the REXX program execute.

If the program uses the CA Automation Point SESSCMD command processor, jump to the host-session window that the program is controlling. This allows you to watch the command processors as they are being issued.
