Monitoring with a specific user ID gives you the ability to do the following actions:

• Isolate monitoring and debugging to a specific user, and not all users
• Move from terminal to terminal (or use a multi‑session manager) and automatically redirect monitoring options and breakpoints to your current session, provided the from and to terminals default to .ANY
• Have two users concurrently debug a program, but with different monitoring options

Note: You can also set the User ID to .ANY to monitor for any user of the program.
