Primary option: Storage Areas

Selecting the Storage Areas option provides you with links to any event-related formatted storage areas, any hex-dumped storage ranges, and in case of COBOL, information about any static storage for programs that are no longer on the DSA chain, as the example shown in Sample System-Wide Storage Areas display.

Select one of the following:
  1. Event 1 Program COBMST3 Storage Areas
  2. Hex-Dumped Storage

The following list of COBOL programs have been called and returned during the
current execution, but do not have active register save areas:
  3. Module COBMST3 Program COBFIL2 Static Storage
  4. Module COBMST3 Program COBSUB2 Static Storage

*** Bottom of data.

Select any event-related point-and-shoot links from this display (such as the "Event 1 Program COBMST3 Storage Areas" link above), by one of these actions:

  • Enter the option number on the command line.
  • Place the cursor on the option number point-and-shoot field and press Enter.

The result is a display that is similar to the one presented if the "Associated Storage Areas" link is selected from the detailed section for the event. See Displaying associated storage areas for more information and example.

The "Hex-Dumped Storage" link provides a display of relevant unformatted storage areas which might be for one or more events. An example of the hex-dumped storage display is shown in Sample Hex-Dumped Storage display.
