Issue/Introduction
After selecting "Generate debug support" for generation of Gen 8.6 IMS Server Load Module the link-edit fails with TIRTRCE unresolved error message:

Why can't TIRTRCE be located?
Cause
The Diagram Trace Facility (DTF) is not supported for IMS, so there is no IMPORT CODE statement for TIRTRCE generated in the installation control file for the link-edit.
Resolution
- To run with Diagram Trace Facility (DTF) requires targeting CICS or selecting "Target TSO test facility" (Application Test Facility) in the Generation options.
- For the "TSO test facility" only Block Mode and Batch applications are supported and tracing server applications is not supported. Tracing servers requires the use of DTF.
