Test-run Your EXEC with the Playback Option

The playback option allows you to test-run an automation REXX EXEC in the EPI environment, enabling you to revise the EXEC easily if it does not affect session activity as you intended. The playback option tests only EXECs created using the recording option of the EPI.

To playback a recorded REXX EXEC

  1. Choose option B (playBack) from the EPI Record and Playback Primary Menu.

    As a result, you see a panel asking you to enter the name of the data set and member where the EXEC to play back resides.

  2. Enter the data set name and member name.

    Playback begins.
