Error recovery for dumps
Determining whether main storage dump data was written to
disk
Perform the following steps to determine whether a main storage dump data was
written to disk:
1. If the Main Storage Dump Occurred display appears on the system console,
then the first part of the main storage dump data has been written to disk. Go
to “Copying a main storage dump” on page 272 to save the main storage
dump.
2. If the main storage dump terminated with an SRC displayed on the control
panel, and the Main Storage Dump Occurred display does not appear on the
system console do the following:
a. Check to see if function 34 is available at the control panel.
b. If function 34 is available, select function 34 at the control panel and press
Enter at the control panel to attempt a retry of the dump IPL.
If the Main Storage Dump Occurred display appears on the system console,
function 34 was successful and the main storage dump data is not lost. Go
to “Copying a main storage dump” on page 272 to save the main storage
dump.
c. If function 34 is not available or if the terminating SRC continues to be
displayed at the control panel, then the main storage dump data has been
lost. The only remaining data that might be available is the main storage
dump residue, a service processor storage dump, and all of the System
Reference Code data words. Go to “Reporting the error” to collect as much
data as possible.
Reporting the error
The main storage dump failure needs to be reported with all of the data that can
be collected. Collect and record or save the following data:
1. Save the SRC data words:
a. Set the control panel key mode to Manual.
b. Record all of the SRC data words available from function 11 through
function 20.
2. Save the service processor control storage data dump.
a. Select control panel function 70 and press Enter. See “Performing an IOP
storage dump to disk (Models 150, 170, 250, 4xx, 50x, 51x, 530, 53S, 6xx, 7xx,
SB1, S20, S30, and S40)” on page 277 or “Performing a service processor
storage dump (Models 270, 8xx, SB2, SB3, and 890)” on page 277.
