Viewing Dumps from TSO/ISPF › Starting the Viewer › The Dump Index Display

The Dump Index Display

The viewer interface begins with a display of the available dumps retrieved from your active dump index. If dump capture is initialized on the system you are viewing, then the active dump index name is retrieved from the resident options table (CADVTABL) that was loaded when dump capture was initialized. Otherwise the options table is loaded from disk, and the name of your dump index is retrieved from there.

Note: The number of index entries in the dump index menu always displays on the message line when you first enter the viewer.

The following is a dump index display:
