Results & Notes:

The Kernel Debugger gives control to RASRST to force a system dump. The dump drive will be that specified in variable: DumpDevice, which defaults to A. This may be modified by using the E command.

The current CPU register values as displayed by the R command may be found from symbol _RegSA and formatted using the PMDF REXX EXEC DR. See Forcing a System Dump from the Kernel Debugger for further information. No system shutdown processing, whatsoever, is performed.

This command is not available to the Dump Formatter!
