Is there reason to believe this thing came from Abend-aid beyond that someone said so? As an ISV we've got lots of Abend-aid dumps, but they've always been kind of printed dumps for kindergartners, and they never do well with our kind of authorized cross-memory environment. But they may well be helpful for things like an 0C6 in a COBOL program. We ask customers to always send us an SVC/SLIP dump, or if they really must, a SYSMDUMP. Tony H.
