Working with Dumps › Dump/Trace Selection List › Dump Options

Dump Options

From the Dump/Trace Selection screen, you can view, delete, hold, or release dumps by specifying one of the following options:

Note: You can specify an option for more than one dump.

S

Displays the dump online. If you specify S next to more than one dump, CA SymDump for CICS displays the dumps in the order in which they are listed. After viewing the first dump, press PF3 to display the next selected dump.

D

Deletes the dump. If you specify D next to one or more dumps, the system asks you to press Enter to confirm the deletions. Only dumps on the CA SymDump for CICS PROTDMP data set can be deleted.

H

Holds the dump and prevents it from being deleted. A dump placed on Hold can be selected for viewing or released.

Note: This command is equivalent to the Lock command in the IN25DMPU utility.

R

Releases a dump that is being held.

Note: This command is equivalent to the Unlock command in the IN25DMPU utility.

After specifying your options you can do the following tasks:

• Press Enter to process the options. The Status column shows the options you specified.
• Press PF3 to return to the Dump/Trace Analysis screen. The information you previously entered on that screen is retained.
• Press PF4 to return to the Primary Option menu.
