Thanks Wayne. I had searched the archives. My tests show that SYSMDUMP directed to SYSOUT, then copied to a dataset (via SDSF for example), results in a partially corrupted SYSMDUMP.
I look at many such dumps and have never experienced any corruption using this technique. The dump on spool will be byte-for-byte exactly correct. When copying to DASD for IPCS use, you need to use a tool that will not change the contents of the data. And, you must copy it to a RECFM=FBS data set.
