Dump Top Secret Data Space

• Top Secret

Issue/Introduction

When control option SECCAHE() is activated, Top Secret creates a data space with a common scope, meaning this data space belongs to the master address space. If there is an issue with it, how can you get a dump of the data space?

Resolution

Use the MVS 'DUMP' command to dump the Top Secret data space. For example, enter the MVS dump command at the console as follows:

DUMP COMM=('TSS DSP')
xx IEE094D SPECIFY OPERAND(S) FOR DUMP COMMAND
xxJOBNAME=tssc00,DSPNAME=(1.TSSDSP),END

• 'xx' is the message number
• 'tssc00' is the Top Secret job name.
• For the DSPNAME= parameter, '1' is the asid number owner of the data space. For the master address space, the asid is '1'.
• 'TSSDSP' is the name of the Top Secret data space.
