Performing an IBM i main storage dump

A main storage dump is a collection of data from the IBM® i main storage. It can be manually initiated when the system administrator suspects a system wait or loop, or automatically by the server firmware as the result of a system failure.

Note: Before performing a main storage dump, collect any reference code information from the control panel or the management console.
