You can tell what's in a dump including data spaces use this IPCS command.
listdump dataset(your.svc.dump.dataset.abc) select(attributes)
That gives you what you need to use IPCS to access the storage in a dump if
it is included.
I'd recommend SELECT(DUMPED) as the option rather than
SELECT(ATTRIBUTES). That's what you'll get if you enter "LD" to the
left of the data set name when viewing the inventory in the IPCS dialog.
Sam made a point of saying that that the data set name pertained to a
system dump. SADMPs record main storage as ABSOLUTE, leaving it to IPCS
(with a little help from RSM) to relate that storage to the ASIDs and
data spaces that it backs. As a result, LISTDUMP won't necessarily see
all of the data spaces that may be available after translation has been
demanded. IPCS waits until you or your analysis routines ask about
virtual storage before commencing translation.
