Issue/Introduction

After installation of PTF SO12236 it looks like the CCITCPGW member in CAW0PROC removed the //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=A statement.

Is there a specific reason the SYSUDUMP needs to be removed from CCITCPGW or can we continue to run our started task with the SYSUDUMP DD? 

 

 

Environment

Release : 15.0
Component : CAICCI MVS

Resolution

The SYSUDUMP card was removed because if an abend occurs,  the dump would be part of the job.  Without it, a valid SVCDUMP should be created and this will help better diagnose what has occurred. A standard SVCDUMP is preferred over a SYSUDUMP, so the advice is to not include the SYSUDUMP DD statement.
