This statement creates a main memory dump and optionally terminates the DBH or SESDCN session.
Scope of validity
DBH and SESDCN administration
Function
You use the CREATE-DUMP statement to create a main-memory dump.
The DBH or SESDCN session normally continues after this statement is issued. However, you can cause the session to be terminated once the dump has been created.
CREATE-DUMP |
CANCEL-PROGRAM = *NO / *YES |
Operands
CANCEL-PROGRAM = *NO
This is the default. The DBH or SESDCN session continues after the dump is created. In DBH administration, the DBH issues the consistency check SESADXS: XX/05/99 after this statement is issued.
CANCEL-PROGRAM = *YES
After the dump is created, the DBH or SESDCN session is terminated.
In DBH administration, the DBH issues the consistency check SESADXS: XX/40/99 after this statement is issued.
If databases are being edited (by means of SQL statements or CALL DML statements) when the session is terminated, an external restart is necessary. If transaction management was not set for the session, the databases involved have to be repaired by means of media recovery (see the “ Core manual”).
Administration command in ISP format and at the CALL DML interface
The DUMP[,STOP] administration command corresponds to the CREATE-DUMP administration statement here. The STOP parameter is not permitted for SESDCN. The SESDCN session therefore cannot be terminated by means of the DUMP command.
