The storage dumps produced in an LE environment are different from those that you may be used to from the previous COBOL, PL/I and C/C++ environments. There is a lot more information that is available for problem determination, but it is not always as easy to navigate through the control blocks to find the information that you need to solve a problem. IPCS can be a valuable tool when trying to find your way through a dump. Generally, though, IPCS has been primarily used by systems support personnel and has not been part of the applications or applications support tool box. The speaker for this session will provide an introduction to IPCS directed at applications personnel and will show you how to more easily diagnose application problems, particularly when the problem is related to storage misuse.
This session is being presented as a result of attendee requests at SHARE 118 in Atlanta.
