The presence of a SYS1.PAGEDUMP dataset on the volume is a pretty strong indicator, though I guess it would be possible to lose the actual IPL text and leave the dataset, in which case a dump of track 0 should be pretty clear.
>>> Eric Bielefeld <[email protected]> 8/17/2010 4:40 PM >>> Is there a way to find out if a volume has the IPL Text for taking a Stand Alone Dump? I'm pretty sure that the IPL text is on the master catalog volume, but is there any way to verify that? I looked at the volume with FileAid, and didn't see anything. -- Eric Bielefeld Systems Programmer ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html CONFIDENTIALITY/EMAIL NOTICE: The material in this transmission contains confidential and privileged information intended only for the addressee.
