Allocating SYSUDUMP data sets

This procedure describes allocating SYSUDUMP data sets.

Note

Beginning with version 6.4, BMC AMI OpsA creates SVC dumps by default. BMC recommends the use of SVC dump data sets. If you want your default to be SVC dumps, you can skip the steps in this section.

However, if you want to obtain SYSUDUMPs, you must code DUMPTYPE=SYSOUT in DSIPARM member NAIOPT00. Additionally, if NetView is running SUB=MSTR, you must perform the 3 steps listed below.

  1. Allocate a minimum of three dump data sets with RECFM=VBA and LRECL=125,BLKSIZE=1632,DSORG=PS. Make each one large enough to accommodate the largest dump that you expect.

  2. Add the following allocations to your NetView address space JCL, pointing to the dump data sets that were created in the previous step.

    //BBDUMP01 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dumpdsn1,VOL=SER=....,UNIT=....
    //BBDUMP02 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dumpdsn2,VOL=SER=....,UNIT=....
    //BBDUMP03 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dumpdsn3,VOL=SER=....,UNIT=....
  3. Catalog all data sets that are referenced in the NetView address space JCL PROC in the master catalog or change all allocations to UNIT/VOLSER allocations.
