Documenting routing failures

You should gather documentation described in Documentation for the IBM Support Center for initial diagnosis of all routing failures. If dynamic routing is being provided by OMPROUTE and the expected dynamic routes have not been installed in the stack route table, the following documentation should also be available:
  • MVS™ system log
  • SYSLOGD
  • The data set containing OMPROUTE trace and debug information. If OMPROUTE trace and debug information is being redirected to the OMPROUTE CTRACE internal buffer, this buffer is included in a dump of the OMPROUTE address space. For details, see OMPROUTE traces and debug information and TCP/IP services component trace for OMPROUTE.
  • Output from OMPROUTE RTTABLE or RT6TABLE commands. If using policy-based routing, collect output for the appropriate route tables.
  • Output from any other OMPROUTE DISPLAY commands used.
