Usage notes

  • NOTRANDUMP causes the Tran Dumps Suppressed counter to be incremented. NOSYSDUMP causes the System Dumps Suppressed counter to be incremented. The value of Current Dumps increments regardless of suppression. When the Maximum Dumps count is reached, dumps are suppressed regardless of other options.
  • If you issue the RES (reset) command, the Maximum Dumps count is set to 0.
