This functionality is only supported on the following platforms:
Additional restrictions apply. For details, see the Reverse Debug and Live Recording topic in the Known Issues and Restrictions section of this documentation.
You can create a recording of your application execution, and then load the recording into the Eclipse debugger, on another machine, to watch the execution path. To play the recording back, you must ensure that it is played on a machine that is using the same operating system as the one that it was created on.
As the programs run, the recorder captures everything that influences the running of the programs, including all input, disk access, keyboard strokes, database connections and processes, interactions with the operating system, etc. After loading the recording into the debugger, you can move forwards and backwards seamlessly through the recording.
To be able to run the recording successfully, you must have access to the program source files (COBOL program files and copybooks) and debug symbol files (.idy files) used in the application.
