HELP - Help about KDCDUMP

The HELP command provides information about the operation of the KDCDUMP program. HELP also outputs information which are only relevant for the system service and which are not described in this chapter.

This information is output to SYSOUT.

HELP'

[ { ALL | command-name | TABLE-NAMES } ]

HELP without operands simply outputs a list of all KDCDUMP statements. The operands have the following meaning:

ALL	outputs an overview of the KDCDUMP statements. Default value.
command-name
	Name of a KDCDUMP statement about which brief information is output.
TABLE-NAMES
	outputs all valid table names as well as additional brief information as to whether the table in question is capable of being edited symbolically. If the table can be edited symbolically, a “D” is displayed, (if not, an “N” is displayed).Table groups are indicated by an asterisk (*) prefixed before the name. The individual tables of the table group are listed according to the name of the table group and indicated by a plus sign (+) prefixed before the name.If a dump is in memory, then the number of table entries is output (in hexadecimal form). As a consequence of negative results obtained during address validation when taking a dump it may happen that UTM areas or tables are not contained in the dump. Since no table entries are present in such situations, the tables are flagged as follows:UA_ERROR: It was not possible to dump the UTM area containing the table.TA_ERROR: Only the table could not be dumped. REPFILE is similarly listed as a table. The REP file, however, must be output via the REPFILE statement (not via TABLE). REPFILE is followed by the number of different problem message numbers.
