Function
DMKRND IS THE INTERFACE BETWEEN THE VM/370 DUMP SPOOL FILE AND THE OS-SSP DUMP FORMAT PROGRAM FOR PRINTING AND FORMAT- TING DUMPS OF THE 3704 AND 3705 COMMUNICATIONS CONTROLLERS
Attributes
NON-REUSEABLE, INVOKED VIA NCPDUMP COMMAND IN CMS
Operation
1. IF NO DUMP FILE WAS SPECIFIED ('DUMPNN' OMITTED), THE DIAGNOSE X'0034' IS USED TO READ A DUMP SPOOL FILE ONTO THE CMS PRIMARY DISK. A CHECK IS MADE FOR EXISTING FILES WITH THE NAME 'DUMPNN NCPDUMP', WHERE 'NN' GOES FROM '00' TO '09'. THE NEW DUMP FILE IS GIVEN THE FIRST SUCH NAME WHICH DOES NOT ALREADY EXIST. AN INFORMATION MSG IS TYPED INFORMING THE USER OF WHICH FILE WAS CREATED. 2. FOR EACH 4096-BYTE SPOOL RECORD, EIGHT 512-BYTE RECORDS ARE WRITTEN INTO THE CMS DISK FILE. 3. AFTER THE CMS FILE HAS BEEN CREATED, THE CMS FILEDEF FUNCTION IS USED TO SETUP THE DDNAME SPECIFICATIONS EXPECTED BY IFLDUMP. THE CMS 'COMPSWT' IS USED TO FORCE A CMS 'LOADMOD' WHEN THE OS LINK MACRO IS USED TO EXECUTE THE IFLDUMP PROGRAM. ALL DUMP OUTPUT IS DIRECTED TO THE VIRTUAL SPOOL PRINTER. A SINGLE-ITEM TEMPORARY FILE IS CREATED TO PASS A CONTROL RECORD TO THE DUMP PROCESSOR, AND THIS FILE IS ERASED FOLLOWING THE DUMP.
