DUMP
The DUMP system initialization parameter specifies whether the CICS® dump domain is to take SDUMPs.
- DUMP={YES|NO|TABLEONLY} (active and alternate)
- Valid values are as follows:
- YES
- SDUMPs are produced, unless suppressed by the options specified in the CICS system dump table or by the MVS™ system defaults.
- NO
- SDUMPs are suppressed. Note: This does not prevent the CICS kernel from taking SDUMPs.
- TABLEONLY
- SDUMPs are suppressed except those which have an explicit entry in the dump table with options that allow a dump to be taken. This allows for targeted capturing of dumps for a specific error situation. Any dump table entries added implicitly by CICS will not result in a dump being taken.
