SDUMPX fails to dump requested areas under z/OS 3.1

Postby gmac » Fri Aug 23, 2024 1:43 pm

We have a program that issues an SDUMPX macro to dump the address space and an associated data space.

This program was written way back in the 90s and has worked under every release of z/OS until z/OS 3.1.

Under z/OS 3.1, instead of getting our address space and selected data space, we get a lot of data that was not requested, the dump request fails (see below) and the data space is not included.

We issuing the SDUMPX we get the following messages:

IEA794I SVC DUMP HAS CAPTURED: 929                                      
DUMPID=002 REQUESTED BY JOB (XXXXX   )                                  
DUMP TITLE=XXX DUMP                                        
INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES FOR OPTIMIZE=YES PROCESSING                      
IEF196I IGD100I 0A82 ALLOCATED TO DDNAME SYS00003 DATACLAS (        )  
IEF196I IEF285I   SYS1.S0W1.Z31B.DMP00002                      CATALOGED

IEA611I PARTIAL DUMP ON SYS1.S0W1.Z31B.DMP00002 933                    
DUMPID=002 REQUESTED BY JOB (SRM27   )                                  
FOR ASID (0074)                                                        
INCIDENT TOKEN: ADCDPL   S0W1     08/23/2024 08:02:00                  
SDRSN = 00000000 00000000 04000000 00000000                            
SOME STORAGE COULD NOT BE DUMPED RC=8              


Under previous z/OS versions, our dump dataset would contain the normal DR2 H, SV, SC, A, etc. records, plus our expected DR2 SS.....%00000XXX records, where 00000XXX is our data space.

We have rebuilt the code under z/OS 3.1 but that made no difference. We have also changed the default dump parameters, altered the code to try different dump options, but still no data space and no obvious changes in what is being dumped.

Our SDUMPX macro is as follows:

        SDUMPX HDRAD=SDUMPHDR,SUMLSTL=SUMLSTL,                        X
               TYPE=(XMEM,FAILRC),SDATA=(NODEFS,SUM,RGN,TRT),          X
               MF=(E,SDUMPL)    


As I have mentioned, this code has worked under all previous versions of z/OS.

Any help appreciated.
