Tips regarding the collection of diagnostic data

This section describes problems that might arise when you collect diagnostic data, such as debugging logs.

KDFDEVIN DEBUG
To prevent excess data generation, you must turn on debugging only when you are working with IBM® Software Support on request.
!Trace in VTAMDATA
You might experience a problem with the OMEGAMON® for Storage interface, and IBM Software Support requests that you turn on tracing in the OMEGAMON for Storage address space.
STGDEBUG(X)
IBM Software Support might instruct you to add the set storage debugging parameter to the RKANPAR member KDFSYSIN as part of the debugging process.
Preferred dump options
Using the correct SDATA options to collect memory or console dumps from OMEGAMON for Storage is crucial for troubleshooting.
