The z/OS 1.8 version of the DF/DSS manual lists 49 options for the ADRDSSU DUMP command. The manual explains them all quite well. I recommend if you're writing ADRDSSU dump jobs that you familiarize yourself with the command options.
We cannot provide you specific options to use since many of them are going to be site specific and we don't know your site. Your question would be better posed to your site storage management or system support groups. Furthermore, selecting some options, such as LOGINDYNAM, may or may not be required depending on your other parameters -- if you have input DD statements already pointing to your input files, you won't need LOGINDYNAM. If you don't point to the input files, then you may need LOGINDYNAM -- but we cannot tell you that.
Furthermore, the options vary depending on whether you are doing physical or logical backups -- again something we cannot tell from what you provided. |

| My personal preference is to include
but you're telling DF/DSS to dump everything starting HLQ1. and HLQ2 and HLQ3 (note the difference between HLQ1 and the other two). The other options all look reasonable. |
