<programdump destination>

──┬─ TODISK ────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
  ├─ TOPRINTER ─┤
  └─ PDUMPONLY ─┘

When the TODISK option is specified and a program dump is taken, a disk file is created in a format acceptable to DUMPANALYZER. The listing normally produced by the PROGRAMDUMP statement is suppressed. A brief summary of the program dump is printed, unless the PDUMPONLY option is also specified.

The program dump file name is as follows. The portion of the task name included in the program dump file name is limited to eight nodes. The date format is YYMMDD, and the time format is HHMMSS.

PDUMP/<task name>/<date>/<time>/<mix number>

In a program dump to disk, the base of the stack and the PIB are always dumped. All other program dump option settings work the way they work in a dump to the printer.

If the TODISK option and the TOPRINTER option are set, a program dump to the printer is taken after the disk file program dump has been produced. The two dumps might not be identical because the dump to disk has some side effects that might change the contents of memory.

The current destination option can be overridden by either destination option.

If neither destination option is specified, the destination is determined by the PDTODISK system options.
