Steps for generating a system dump in a batch runtime environment

Perform the following steps to generate a system dump in a batch runtime environment. When you are done, you will have generated a system dump in a batch runtime environment.

  1. Specify runtime options TERMTHDACT(UAONLY, UADUMP, UATRACE, or UAIMM), and TRAP(ON). If you specify the suboption UAIMM then you must set TRAP(ON,NOSPIE). The TERMTHDACT suboption determines the level of detail of the Language Environment formatted dump. For further details on the TERMTHDACT suboptions, see Generating a Language Environment dump with TERMTHDACT.
  2. Decide whether to include a SYSMDUMP DD card or use the DYNDUMP runtime option.
    • Include a SYSMDUMP DD card with the desired data set name and DCB information: 
      LRECL=4160, BLKSIZE=4160, and RECFM=FBS.
    • Specify the DYNDUMP runtime option with the following information: 
      DYNDUMP (hlq,DYNAMIC,TDUMP)
  3. Rerun the program.
