HP XP Racks - Manual (Page 714)

Perform the following to output ABEND dumps:
•
For scripts:
Specify a SYSABEND DD statement for JCL.
•
For TSO/E:
After logging on to the TSO/E terminal, you need to enter the following commands before
executing any CLI commands:
◦ When an ABEND dump is output to the spool:
ALLOC DD(SYSABEND) SYSOUT( SYSOUT-class)
◦ When an ABEND dump is output to a dataset:
ALLOC DD(SYSABEND) DS( dataset-name)
When returning to the READY mode after a CLI command terminated abnormally, make sure that
you press the Enter key.
If a TSO/E command is entered without pressing the Enter key, an ABEND dump might not be
output.
