Hi, I'd like to ask how can I make z/Linux dump. I know that I can use VMDUMP tool but I want to check how stand-alone dum p will work.
My system is z/VM ver. 5.4 and SLES10. Is below procedure correct? 1. Install the dump tool using the zipl command. for example: zipl -d /dev/dasdc1 An the take dump from z/VM Linux quest: 2. Stop all CPUs #cp cpu all stop 3. Store status on the IPL CPU. #cp store status 4. IPL the dump tool. #cp i 193 - 193 is DASD device The following PSW indicates that the dump process has completed successfully: (64-bit) PSW: 00020000 80000000 00000000 00000000 5. IPL Linux guest again. Thank you, Mart
