BMC AMI DevX Code Debug

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the powerful tools of the BMC AMI DevX range, among others, to debug incidents that occur during program execution. Mainly in our development environments. This is really useful to see the content of the variables during execution. And it's very easy to configure either in batch mode or CICS mode.

Pros

  • Debugging
  • Change time of execution
  • Explain the dumps

Cons

  • DDIO file administration could be improved

Return on Investment

  • Resolving production incidents is essential for the smooth running of the company
  • Better quality in the code

BMC AMI DevX Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

BMC AMI DevX is used very widely in the organisation to view/edit flat and VSAM files. Developers rely heavily on the ability to see data in a formatted fashion and modify if needed.

Pros

  • Editing VSAM files with File Aid using copybooks

Cons

  • File Aid DB2 could be improved for scrolling

Return on Investment

  • I don't know if we have measured any productivity improvement but absent this tool it would be quite difficult to work with VSAM
