Generating dumps across multiple LPARs

Note: The above DUMP command options can be specified within the REMOTE parameter of the DUMP command if you want to generate a dump of all XRC address spaces in a sysplex. Use the SYSLIST subparameter to list the names of the different systems to which you want the dump command sent.

The syntax for the REMOTE parameter is:

REMOTE(SYSLIST=(sysname1('ANTAS*'),sysname2
 ('ANTAS*')),DSPNAME=('ANTAS*'.SYSANT*))

You must specify the PROBDESC=SYSDLOCL parameter when you specify the REMOTE parameter (as indicated in the following example). If you specify the name of the local system in the SYSLIST list, two dumps of the local system will be generated. Therefore, specify the dump options for the local system, and then specify the dump options for the remote systems.

The following example lists all responses that are needed to generate a dump of the local system, as well as the two other systems:

DUMP COMM=(DUMP LOCAL AND 2 OTHER SYSTEMS)
R n1,JOBNAME=(ANTAS*), DSPNAME=('ANAS*'.SYSANT*),CONT
R n2,SDATA=(ALLNUC,PSA,SQA,CSA,LPA,TRT,SUM,LSQA,RGN),CONT
R n3,PROBDESC=SYSDLOCL,CONT
R n4,REMOTE=(SYSLIST=(sysname2('ANTAS*'),sysname3
 ('ANTAS*')),DSPNAME,SDATA),END
