Starting KDCDUMP

The KDCDUMP utility can be started for the interactive analysis of a dump in the dialog or to create the dump file in the form of a list. The following sections describe how you use START-EXECUTABLE-PROGRAM to start KDCDUMP with and without a link name.

Alternatively, you can also call KDCDUMP via the SDF command START-KDCDUMP. This command is located in the SDF UTM application area. For more detailed information, see openUTM manual “Using UTM Applications on BS2000 Systems” section "Calling UTM tools".

Starting without link names to evaluate the dump

/START-EXECUTABLE-PROGRAM FROM-FILE= -
/        *LIB-ELEM(LIB=SYSLNK.UTM.070.UTIL,ELEM=KDCDUMP)[,TEST-OPT=*AID]

The TEST-OPTION=*AID only needs to be specified if a table is to be edited symbolically; see the KDCDUMP statement TABLE. After the utility has started, the KDCDUMP statements are read from SYSDTA. If you wish to edit dumps interactively, the link name KDCDUMP must not be assigned to a file.

Starting with link names to create the entire dump file in the form of a list

If you are using a link name, KDCDUMP can be started as follows:

/SET-FILE-LINK LINK-NAME=KDCDUMP,FILE-NAME=dumpfile
/SET-FILE-LINK LINK-NAME=LISTFILE,FILE-NAME=listfile
/START-EXECUTABLE-PROGRAM FROM-FILE= -
/        *LIB-ELEM(LIB=SYSLNK.UTM.070.UTIL,ELEM=KDCDUMP)

dumpfile listfile

name of the dump file name of the edited file

It is also possible to specify an FGG file as a dump file in the /SET-FILE-LINK command. After starting, KDCDUMP executes the following statements:

FILE *KDCDUMP
END

The FILE statement is described in section "FILE Edit single dump file". If no file is assigned the link name LISTFILE, KDCDUMP by default generates a list file under the following name (see chapter "The files of the UTM dump" for the meaning of the letters):

LST.UTMDMP.rrrrrr.ttttff.aaaaaaaa.

You can subsequently print the file created:

/PRINT-DOCUMENT FILE-NAME=listfile,LINE-SPACING=*BY-EBCDIC-CONTROL
