Able to debug using SEP in Visual Studio Code when a data library is set to *PROD

We recently found out that a DUPTAP needs twice as long as the SAVE which is sometimes a regulatory requirement. If the backup takes very long than this might result in 24 hours not being enough to complete the task (if the backup takes more than ...
