This didn't help. I see no indication that Fault Analyzer was invoked at all. Usually when its invoked, even if the dump is suppressed, FA will write an informational message to the console. This is not happening in this case.

If I recall correctly, if a job was cancelled in z/VSE the "dump analysis" product (Abend-Aid, IBM Fault Analyzer, et al) would still get control and produce a nice formatted dump. With z/OS this does not appear to be the case. So if we cancel a job that, for example, appears to be in a infinite loop we have no way to know even where within the program its looping, much less what the program data is. Did we perhaps just miss some option that would allow our dump analysis program to take control when a job is cancelled? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
