Specifies
one of three operands (the others are CDUMPDS and MDUMPDS) that name
dump files for this communication controller. DUMPDS applies to any
communication controller. CDUMPDS and MDUMPDS apply only to 3720,
3725, and 3745 communication controllers.
- DUMPDS names the file that contains a storage dump of a communication
controller. For a 3720, 3725, or 3745, this file also contains communication
scanner processor (CSP) dumps and maintenance and operator subsystem
(MOSS) dumps if you have not set up another file for that purpose.
- For a 3720, 3725, or 3745, CDUMPDS names the file that contains
CSP dumps.
- For a 3720, 3725, or 3745, MDUMPDS names the file that contains
MOSS dumps.
dump_name must be on a DD statement,
which defines the file that is to contain the data from a storage
dump of a communication controller.
Code DUMPDS if any of the following items are true:
- AUTODMP=YES on this PCCU definition statement.
- AUTODMP=NO on this PCCU definition statement and the VTAM® operator answers YES to the resulting prompt
for a dump.
- The VTAM operator issues
the MODIFY DUMP command without the DUMPDS operand.
To format and print the data in a dump file, use the NCP
independent dump utility program described in the NCP, SSP, and EP Diagnosis Guide.
To display an NCP dump that is stored on a 3720 or 3745 communication
controller, use the DISPLAY NCPSTOR operator command described in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation.
