a "Q CPLOAD" will respond with how z/VM was last loaded (it will reply with "what module from what disk" if it was IPL'd cleanly thru a load/activate, or it will reply with the abend type that caused a re-IPL to be initiated).
The "Q DUMP" will tell you right then how much space is needed to dump the system should you abend, or issue a SNAPDUMP/restart PSW.
The "Q ALLOC SPOOL" will tell you how much spool space you have in use, and available (the amount retuned from the Q DUMP is included in the in use section). Having spool space dedicated for dumps will insure you have enough space for them.
funny, I was just working on this for another customer,

Is it possible for VM (z/VM 5.2 z890) to crash and not leave a trace?
Nothing in the hardware (HMC) messages.
Nothing in the PROP log file.
And no DUMP in OPERATNS rdr.
I am a little confused, I can't recall ever
seeing this happen before.
I don't think SHUTDOWN was erroneously entered, I run with that command
disabled.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Tom
