Dump analyzer
A dump analyzer is a programming tool which is used for understanding a machine readable core dump.
GNU gdb
[edit]The GNU Debugger (gdb) can be used to look inside core dumps (called CORE) from various supported systems. Gdb is an interactive command-line debugger;[1] various [GUI]] front-ends can be run with gdb.
IBM IPCS
[edit]IPCS (Interactive Problem Control System) is a z/OS component which can analyze unformatted application dumps dumps (SYSMDUMP) or snapshot dumps, or stand-alone system dumps (SADMP). IPCS can inspect any storage address in the dump and format system control blocks, providing labels for fields. It can be run interactively or as a batch job.[2]
IBM z/VM Dump Viewing Facility
[edit]“The Dump Viewing Facility provides a variety of commands and subcommands that allow the user to interactively locate and display dump data.”[3]
