SMP/E for z/OS Commands
SA23-2275-01

Suppose that SYSMOD UZ12345 should have been selected when you ran the following SMP/E commands, but was not:
SET      BDY(MVSTST1)       /* Process MVSTST1 tgt zone.  */.
APPLY    PTFS               /* Apply PTFs for HBT1201.    */
         FORFMID(HBT1201)   /*                            */
         GROUP              /*                            */.
After you report the problem to IBM®, you may be asked to rerun the job with certain dump points enabled, for example, dump point 1. This information helps IBM determine the cause of the problem. You may also want to give the dump a title that describes the problem. You can use the following commands:
SET      BDY(MVSTST1)       /* Process MVSTST1 tgt zone.  */.
DEBUG    DUMPON ((1,SYSMOD  /* Specify debug dump point   */
         UZ12345 NOT        /* and dump title.            */
         SELECTED FOR       /*                            */
         APPLY))            /*                            */.
APPLY    PTFS               /* Apply PTFs for HBT1201.    */
         FORFMID(HBT1201)   /*                            */
         GROUP              /*                            */.
DEBUG    DUMPOFF(1)         /* Stop debug dump.           */.

When you run this job, SMP/E formats and dumps the control blocks and storage areas associated with dump point 1, then writes the dump to SMPDEBUG.
