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
