SNAPSHOTFROMDUMP
The SNAPSHOTFROMDUMP command creates a file from a snapshot of a process that
has caused a processor halt. The snapshot file is — small far smaller than a processor
dump — and its contents are easily dialed-out to a service provider for analysis.
ON
instructs TFDS to create a snapshot file of the process that has caused the halt.
The default value is ON.
OFF
instructs TFDS not to create a snapshot file of the process that has caused the
halt.
Guideline
The SNAPSHOTFROMDUMP setting is displayed by the CONFIG DETAIL
command. (See CONFIG on page 3-15.)
This attribute applies only when parallel dumping occurs (as opposed to multi-slice
dumping on DMR and TMR processors, or simple dumping on SMR processors),
and to the ANALYZE FILENAME command.
Examples
SNAPSHOTFROMDUMP OFF
SNAPSHOTFROMDUMP { ON | OFF }
