Dear All,
In our console Log, iam frequently seeing this Message.
*1158 IEA793A NO DUMP DATA SETS AVAILABLE FOR DUMPID=074 BY JOB (AUTO ). USE THE DUMPDS COMM
What i assume is it is related to some Dump Dataset,which is missing.
I want to understand the Exact reason Behind Message ?
how to identify the Problem Behind this?
How to set the Dump Dataset?
Which Functionality will affect, if is unattended?
Can someone give some Help me out by giving some pointers?
In our shop we dont have any system admins.There is no one to reach out.I want to learn and understand and fix the issues.
Warm Regards,
T Sakthi kumar |

the USE THE DUMPDS COMM as suggested by the message should have told You how to proceed
ask Your organization to provide a support , provide You withe proper training
read the manuals about the DUMPDS command
a google search with DUMPDS took less than a second to return the link to the relative manual page

the dump as told by the original message will not be taken
if You have serious problems the dump will not be available for the problem determination |

Hi Enrico
Thanks for your prompt reply. In my Organization there will not provide any system programming training. Because the product which i am working is going to End of Life by 2017. there is no enhancement or new version etc. only Bug fix support we are entitled.
what i have got is Entire access To IBM mainframe. Including Root access.
its my self interest to learn. but i will surely follow your Advice.
Warm Regards,
T Sakthi Kumar |

The term "root access" applies to z/OS for the Unix System Services piece ONLY. It is wrong to use it for z/OS without meaning the Unix System Services access.
One of the PARMLIB (maybe SYS1.PARMLIB but maybe not -- it all depends upon the site) members will provide you the dump data set names. The message is telling you that they are all filled and no further system dumps can be put on disk until one -- or more -- of them are emptied. You won't lose functionality, but you may lose dumps (which, if a problem is reported to IBM, may mean IBM cannot diagnose and correct the problem). |

The OS will sometimes take a system or SVC dump. There is a limit to how many can be taken and kept. Usually there's some automation to deal with these by offloading them to some sort of archive files.
You can enter the 'DISPLAY DUMP,TITLE' command MVS command from the console to display the currently existing DUMP's out there with their titles.
If some are obviously duplicates based on their titles it's often OK to delete them with the 'DUMPDS DEL,DSN=nn' command. But may be best to talk to whatever support teams you have from Z/OS, CICS and Storage areas who may understand your sites setup. |
