Probably not what you want to hear, but z/XDC really handles
tracing and break points much better than IBM's Debugger, TSO
TEST, TEST AUTH, etc.

I was hoping some one would see this and say they have used debug tool to debug
an Estae recovery but at this point TSO TEST seems to be the only solution

Mentioning ESPIE will only confuse things. While I know nothing about IBM
debugger, Joseph told us that his ESTAE displays the S0C4 before IBM Debug gets
control when using TRAP(OFF). Either SPIE called his ESTAE or SPIE percolated
the S0C4. We don't know what the debugger displayed once it got control so it
may have given a clue.
:>it is by my setrp rc=0 in my recovery routine
SETRP RC=0 does nothing more than set the return code in the recovery routine
and continues with the next instruction in ESTAE. Joseph can debug this once he
has the debugger working with his ESTAE.
