CA SymDump System uses an index file to maintain a record of all captured dumps. The dump index file is a VSAM fixed-length relative-record data set (RRDS). A single dump index file can simultaneously manage up to 4,000 dump data sets. You can keep a separate dump index file for each system or share a single dump index file across systems. You can change your active dump index file at any time on any system.
The dump index file is defined by IDCAMS and is initialized using the CA SymDump System index utility program, CADVIDXU. The utility also permits batch access to view or update the contents of any dump index file, and batch maintenance functions. You can use the index utility to delete dump data sets that have reached a certain age, or to produce a list of dumps captured for a specific job or user ID.
Your security profiles must permit both update and read access to the dump index file for all users on systems where the dump index file is used.
