JCL DD Statement for a Snap Dump

z/OS DFSMS Access Method Services Commands
SC23-6846-01

If access method services encounters a condition that requires it to abnormally end a job, it takes a snap dump of virtual storage. You must write an AMSDUMP DD statement to get the snap dump; that is,
//AMSDUMP  DD   SYSOUT=A 

If you do not supply an AMSDUMP DD statement and access method services encounters a condition requiring the job to abnormally end, it produces only an abbreviated dump.
