DEBUG MANAGEMENT IN A DISTRIBUTED BATCH DATA PROCESSING ENVIRONMENT

Disclosed aspects relate to debug management in a distributed batch data processing environment which uses a shared pool of configurable computing resources. A debug configuration to fire a breakpoint based on an achievement of a debug criterion may be initiated in the distributed batch data processing environment. A data block may be detected in the distributed batch data processing environment. The data block may be analyzed with respect to the debug criterion by a debug management engine. Achievement of the debug criterion by the data block may be determined by the debug management engine. In response to determining the achievement of the debug criterion by the data block, the breakpoint may be fired based on the achievement of the debug criterion.
