Resolution

• Run the application in TSO and use the test facility or possibly run it using DTF if targeting CICS. 
• In dump the DebugChk routine is located in the TIRCRUNC runtime DLL.  This DLL is only intended to be used in CICS environments.  This version of DebugChk is making CICS calls, which would explain why a S0C1 abend was received.
   
  For Batch applications, the DebugChk routine should be located in the TIRTRCTZ runtime DLL.
• If the generated application  or  an Action Block that is generated with  TP Monitor set to CICS, then  search for TIRTRCE  which is being pulled in from  Installation Control dataset or  Binder Control Cards dataset,  <tsoid>.IEF.LKPRT.LINK dataset.
• Check  for below right syntax in batch

          IMPORT CODE,'TIRTRCTZ','TIRTRCE'

• Sometimes having wrong syntax like below  in load modules or common Action Blocks may result in abend .
   
  IMPORT CODE,'TIRCRUNC','TIRTRCE'
