4.3.14 How to Turn on Source in a CA MICS Environment

It is occasionally necessary to expand the SAS source listing
in order to find the context of an error in a CA MICS
operational job.  This process is called turning on source
and is accomplished in CA MICS by coding the following
symbolic parameter on the EXEC statement of the problem step
of the job:

    SYSPARM=DEBUG

If the problem step executes the MICSCOM, MICSDBx, MICSDOC,
MICSNDBX, MICSSHRX , MICSDM, MICSDUx, or  MICSGU procedure,
turn on source by coding SYSPARM=DEBUG on the EXEC statement
as follows:

    //STEP1    EXEC procedurename,SYSPARM=DEBUG


USAGE CONSIDERATIONS:

If a SYSPARM value has already been specified on the EXEC
statement, DEBUG must be specified as the first value, a
blank must be used as the delimiter, and the whole symbolic
parameter value must be enclosed in quotes.  The following
example demonstrates this:

    //FINRECAP  EXEC MICSCOM,SYSPARM='DEBUG NODB'

Review the LINES= parameter in your JCL to avoid an abend due
to excessive lines.

Remove the SYSPARM value as soon as the problem step has been
executed in order to reduce paper consumption in other
CA MICS operational jobs.
