12.4. LE and UNIX System Services shell

Using UNIX System Services and the LE run-time options, consider the following steps to take system dumps:

1.
To write the system dump to a data set, issue the command:
export _BPXK_MDUMP=filename
The filename is a fully qualified data set name with LRECL=4160 and RECFM=FBS
2.
Specify Language Environment run-time options: Where the suboption is UADUMP (preferred), UAONLY, UATRACE, UAIMM. If UAIMM is set, TRAP(ON,NOSPIE) must also be set.
3.
Rerun the program and the dump will be written to the specified data set.
