Hi,
There is a way to add/update SVC dump SDATA parameters to StarTool DA. It
requires modifying and regenerating the DA MVS Control Table (MCT). Here are
the instructions:
1) Locate the StarTool DA installation datasets. These are the datasets
created during the StarTool DA installation/configuration process. The datasets
are named as follows:
<HighQual>.STRDA.V5R7Mn.<LowQual>
Where <HighQual> is the user-defined high-level qualifier
specified during DA configuration, ‘n’ is the mod level (should be a 2 or 3),
and the <LowQual> we are interested in are INSTALL and MACLIB.
2) Edit the ESPYMCC1 module found in MACLIB. Add/update any desired SDATA
parameters (e.g. add TRT).
3) Locate member ESnnI000 in the DA INSTALL dataset, where ‘nn’ is the
user-defined DA configuration id.
4) In ESnnI000, find the title ‘Generate EMCT modules.’. Note the member
name on the far left and execute this job to regenerate the MCTs.
5) Restart the StarTool Workload Server. This job should be named ESnnWLS
(where ‘nn’ is the DA configuration id).
6) Run the batch job creating the abend. You should now see the trace in
the dump.
Note that StarTool DA creates the SVC dump dataset for the Debugging and Viewer
Service (DVS), but can also be read by IPCS. The SVC dump created is shown in
the abending batch joblog under the ‘StarTool-DA Batch’ banner.
