   '-MDUMPDS--=--moss_dump_name--------'   

Specifies one of three operands (the others are DUMPDS and CDUMPDS) that name dump files for this communication controller. MDUMPDS applies only to 3720, 3725, and 3745 communication controllers.

This operand is optional. If it is coded, it names the file that contains maintenance and operator subsystem (MOSS) dumps. If it is not coded, the MOSS dumps are contained in the file named on the DUMPDS operand. For more information on DUMPDS, see DUMPDS.

moss_dump_name must be on a DD statement, which defines the file that is to contain the data from a storage dump of a communication controller.
