Alan,
Use the API finder to look for the work DEUBG and/or QTE and see
what APIs are available. Looks like Debug Session Handler Exit Program
is as close ass you can get to a system exit point.
Thanks, Matt

Thanks for your reply Shannon.
I understand the STRDBG can change production data. My question relates
to
how can I capture some audit trail of what happens while in STRDBG

Yeah...but STRDBG CAN! Change production data. All you have to do is
use
the command EVAL PGMVAR = NEWVALUE while the program is running
under
debug and you've changed the value of the variable.
I don't see a way to unconditionally prove what you want to prove.

Okay - I may have inadvertently opened up a can of worms.
We use MKS implementer for change control and promotion of changed
objects
into our PRODUCTION system.
When we promote CLP and RPGIII programs into PRODUCTION, the compile of
these programs does NOT use OPTION(*SRCDBG). I have submitted a request
to
our systems dept to change this default on both CRTCLPGM and CRTRPGPGM
so
that if any problems occur on PRODUCTION we can use STRDBG to help
ascertain the cause.
To cut a long story short, with SOX compliance, how can it be shown that
a
use of STRDBG does NOT change PRODUCTION data or conversely how can an
audit trail with the use of STRDBG/STRISDB be captured. There has been a
veiled threat that STRDBG (& STRISDB) may be taken away from us on the
PRODUCTION system because of this.
ANY & ALL help will be more than gratefully accepted.
