Buck,
Buck,
Sure!
I have this job running 990196/QUSER/MSGPGMDQ in a sub-system
1.) Open Debug perspective
2.) Menu: "RUN"
a.) Option: "Debug Configurations"
3.) Inside the "tree-view" on the left, click on "IBM i:Debug job"
4.) Click on the icon that looks like a piece of paper with a "+" (a.k.a. New button)
5.) I populate my debug this way:
a.) Name: "MSGPGMDQ" the Job name
b.) connections: "TEST" (Name of your power-system running IBM i)
c.) Name: "MSGPGMDQ" the job name
d.) User: "*" for current user. Since I only have ONE run, I leave this as "*"
Or you could use the "QUSER" from above
e.) Number: "*" for the current job Number. I only have one job running.
6.) Check-box: Step into CHECKED
7.) Check-Box: Update production files CHECKED
8.) Click the "Debug Button"
Now, your job could be 123456/KKILIAN/QPADEV0001 (Your interactive session)
I normally only use this for our NEVER-ENDING Data-Queue processing jobs. Once in a while we encounter bad data from our vendors... Which make this option EXCELLENT for examining variables in Debug Mode.
It had been working flawless form WDSC 6.0 to RDP 8.0.3. And on RDP 8.5.1. It broke...
I just flip the "system", and then I can debug a different system job, with the exact same name and different job number! If the job is unique, only one running actively. Because I use "*" for both JOB-USER & JOB-NUMBER.

Is there a way to get "SEP" to work on currently running batch program? Like the Debug Job?
I am afraid I was not clear. I only know how to do SEP debugging with RDP - I don't know what 'Debug Job' is. Can you show the steps for that?
