CICS(SETSDUMP,jobname,prodcode)

This control option can be used to cause CAIENF/CICS to write system dump (SVC dump) when the specified jobname or specified product in the CICS region abends. If you do not issue this control option, and the specified jobname or product abends, CAIENF/CICS recovers without writing an SVC dump.

Options are:

jobname

Specify this option if you want CAIENF/CICS to write an SVC dump when a specific jobname abends.

prodcode

Specify this option if you want CAIENF/CICS to write an SVC dump when a specific product abends.

Example

Issuing the following command causes CAIENF/CICS to write an SVC dump when either job CICS0 or product J161 abends.

ENF CICS(SETSDUMP,CICS0,J161)

Note: This command produces the SDUMP only once after the command has been issued. If a second abend should occur, it will be treated as if the command was never issued.

If a dump is needed, a second SETSDUMP command should be issued after an SDUMP has been produced, from the first SETSDUMP command issued.
