DFS3907A REPLY "S" TO SKIP, OR "U" TO RETRY AFTER CURRENT DUMP COMPLETES.

Explanation

An SDUMP for another task not belonging to this IMS system was being taken at the time the SDUMP was issued.

System action

The operating system did not satisfy the IMS SDUMP request because it can create only one SDUMP at a time.

IMS action: IMS waits for the operator to respond.

Operator response

If you receive one of the following messages, reply U to retry the SDUMP request:
IEA911E COMPLETE DUMP ON
    SYS1.DUMPxx....
         or
IEA911E PARTIAL DUMP ON
    SYS1.DUMPxx.....

If you are not sure if the current memory dump has completed, reply U. IMS reissues message DFS3907A if the current memory dump has not completed.

If you want to skip taking a memory dump, reply S. However, be aware that IMS does not try to create any more SDUMPs for the current error. IMS tries to produce alternative diagnostic information (such as online memory dumps, spin-off memory dumps, software LOGREG entries, and dependent region memory dumps).
