Hi,

I created a debug profile using CADP like here:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgece ... fha7qg.htm

I already activeted the profile, but I forgot the cics command to execute it.

Could you tell me the steps to execute or point me to links?

Thank you!

Google is your friend. Googling cics debug profile returned about 37,200 hits and on the first page of results is http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecen ... ug0023.htm which has
Starting Debug Tool for CICS programs by using CADP

Before you begin, verify that you prepared your CICS program as instructed in Preparing a CICS program.

To start Debug Tool under CICS by using CADP, do the following steps:

If you chose screen control mode, start the DTSC transaction on the terminal you specified in the Display Id field.
Run your CICS programs. If Debug Tool identifies a task that matches a CADP profile, Debug Tool starts. If you chose screen control mode, press Enter on the terminal running the DTSC transaction to connect to Debug Tool.

Refer to the following topics for more information related to the material discussed in this topic.

with DTSC:

DTSC Debug Tool Screen Control

Terminal T0JH waiting for Debug Tool.
Press Enter to connect or continue waiting.
Press PF3 to Quit.


I press Enter and nothing happens.
There's a CICS command that goes to a screen that I can type something like:
RUN MY_PROFILE
and I can even pass some parameters, but I don't remember. :/

An alternative is to call my program though a Natural program, and then it activates the debug.
But I should not need a Natural program for this.
