Hi,

Recently we have upgrade to DS 8.5 from DS 8.1, we want to use the facility provided by IBM for Debugging (under view option, debug bar). When we create the server job, debug option is been enable but for parallel job debug option is disable. please can you suggest us is there any additional setting needs to be set to get debug option get enable for parallel job.

Thank you,
suneel

Sorry, that was a misdirection (from a different product). In 8.7 I have no issue displaying the debug bar.

Did debugging parallel jobs get implemented at 8.5 or at 8.7?

From what I recall reading in a Vincent blog - 8.5. It was listed as one of the reasons to upgrade.

The ability to debug parallel jobs was added in Information Server 8.7.

D'oh! That's what I get for just looking at the pictures when I should have been reading the articles.
