SMSVSAM does not initiate an "ABEND dump". RTM2 does that when there is a SYSUDUMP, SYSABEND, or SYSMDUMP DDname allocated. SMSVSAM uses proc IEESYSAS. As supplied by IBM, the IEESYSAS proc does not contain a DD statement for any of those DDnames. If your installation modified the IEESYSAS proc to add one of those DDnames, then the attempt to take that kind of dump is your doing, not SMSVSAM's doing. Jim Mulder z/OS System Test IBM Corp.
