Use the DEBUG statement to activate full tracing of the processing within the LPD server.
Parameters
There are no parameters for this statement.
Usage notes
- Detailed tracing can also be activated using the TRACE parameter on the PROC statement of the LPD server procedure or by specifying TRACE ON with the SMSG interface. The DEBUG statement can be placed anywhere in the data set but only affects those services following it. Including DEBUG as the first statement in the configuration data set allows trace messages to be written from the point LPD is initialized.
- LPD generates minimal tracing under the following conditions:
- No value in DIAG parameter
- TRACE not passed as a parameter
- DEBUG not defined in the LPD configuration file
- Coding LPD with DIAG=Version results in minimal tracing plus the
message EZB0614I. Coding LPD with DIAG=Type results in minimal tracing
plus brief messages describing JOB status, such as:
- JOBreceived
- JobStartPRINTING
- JOBcontinuePRINTING
- JOBfinishPRINTING
Coding LPD with DIAG=Trace results in configuration messages and details of print job.
- TRACE passed as a parameter yields the same results coding DIAG=TYPE.
