If GDSX Abends
•
If a problem occurs with a GDSX process that was running a trace, save the trace
file because subsequent GDSX runs might write over data in the file. The default
name for the primary process trace file is TRACEP; the default name for the
backup process trace file is TRACEB. For more information on the trace facility,
see Tracing GDSX on page 2-80.
•
If the problem involves SCF or SPI, record the version procedures for SCF and
SCP. Within SCF, use the LOG command to capture appropriate information
provided by commands such as INFO PROCESS, INFO LINE, INFO SU, and
STATUS PROCESS, DETAIL.
•
Gather any messages obtained by means of a filter. See EMS Filters and GDSX
on page 2-79 for detailed information.
•
Record the name of the I/O processes GDSX is using (such as CP6100) as well as
the version procedure of such I/O processes.
•
Record information on configuration settings for the I/O processes and
configuration parameter settings for GDSX.
•
If the problem involves Pathway/iTS, record the version of the TCP.
