/directory/coredump.pid
where directory is the current working directory or tmp, and pid is the hexadecimal process ID (PID) for the process that terminated. For details on how to generate the system dump, see Steps for generating a system dump in a z/OS UNIX shell.
To debug the dump, use the Interactive Problem Control System (IPCS). If the dump was written to an HFS file, you must allocate a data set that is large enough and has the correct attributes for receiving a copy of the HFS file. For example, from the ISPF DATA SET UTILITY panel you can specify a volume serial and data set name to allocate. Doing so brings up the DATA SET INFORMATION panel for specifying characteristics of the data set to be allocated.

For more information on using the copy commands, see z/OS UNIX System Services User's Guide.
After you have copied the memory dump file to the data set, you can use IPCS to analyze the dump. See Formatting and analyzing system dumps for information about formatting Language Environment control blocks.
