Printing Dumps

The CA SymDump for CICS batch print facility (IN##PDMP where ## indicates a two digit number that represents the CICS release) lets you specify criteria to determine which dumps to print, just as you specify criteria to select dumps for the CA SymDump for CICS Selection List. Dumps printed using IN##PDMP contain most of the storage areas and summary information that appears when an actual CICS transaction dump is printed using the CICS DFHDUP utility program.

Sample JCL for program IN##PDMP can be found in CAI.CABAJCL member SYMPDMP. Customize this member using the instructions provided at the top.

Note: In an exceptional situation when IN##PDMP does not provide the information you require, take a CICS transaction dump and format it using the CICS DFHDUP utility program.
