Thanks John and Richard... I see that now (gotta look in the right
place!)...
Now we're off to create several of those 64GB LUNs as DUMP type EDEVs...
Then a big honkin EFBA CMS disk to read the dump in... And not have
to worry about losing a console log etc. in case the EDEV hickups...
(The EDEV in our particular environment is a "less than fully supported
environment".)
Thanks again,
Lee

If I set up a BIG EDEV for the dump, I'd like to keep spool files off
the EDEV, so I don't loose things like console logs in case there's a
LUN connectivity issue. In the olden days there was an allocation type
of DUMP, but I don't see that any more...
Am I missing the DUMP option, or??
Lee,
There is not an allocation type for DUMP, but there is a DUMP operand
on the CP_OWNED statement in the system configuration file.
This tells CP to reserve all of the SPOL space on that volume for dumps.
