Hi,
Is there any option to Debug PX jobs by setting Break points.

No, unfortunately one of the side effects of the automated parallelization is that the debugging mechanism does not function. I really miss that functionality from the Server side but haven't even dreamed of putting in an enhancement request as I doubt the architecture will allow implementation of an interactive breakpointing mechanism. I resort to putting in lots of Peek & temporary sequential files plus interim Transform stages to abend on given input values.
