Purpose: The ENABLE SLIP command can be used to automatically
establish a SLIP trap at a specified loadmod.csect+offset. SLIP traps can be
set on load modules belonging to the product, or modules residing in
MLPA or LPA. When the system fetches the instruction
at the requested location, an SVC DUMP is produced.
The DISABLE SLIP command can be used to deactivate the previous SLIP
request.
Syntax:
ENABLE SLIP {jobname} {loadmod[.csect][+offset]}
DISABLE SLIP
The jobname specified on an ENABLE SLIP command can be
the name of a batch job, a started task, or a TSO userid.
Only one SLIP jobname command can be active for a product at any given time. If two SLIP jobname commands are entered, the second command takes precedence.
When the SLIP trap is taken, and the SVC DUMP produced, the SLIP will be automatically removed by the operating system.
If the trap is not taken, and you wish to terminate SLIP processing, issue the
DISABLE SLIP command.
ENABLE SLIP command is being requested for a
product load module, you may need to set the current product name with the
PRODUCT command. The ENABLE SLIP command must search for the location of the load module.
The command will first scan the list of product modules loaded into CSA by
DIF. If the module was not loaded by DIF, the SLIP
command will then search the active MLPA list. If not found in
MLPA, the LPA module list is searched.
Examples: To set a SLIP trap for a job named DONTST1 in load module
IEFW21SD, csect IEFAB451, and hexadecimal offset
12C, the following console command can be used:
F DIF,E SLIP DONTST1 IEFW21SD.IEFAB451+12C
DIF PRODUCT command may be required to select the product that owns the load modules. For example:
F DIF,PRODUCT DIF
F DIF,E SLIP jobname ACC0000.ACC2030+188
