RE: Storage dump

The Save Storage (SAVSTG) command saves a copy of the licensed internal
code and the contents of auxiliary storage (except unused space and
temporary objects) to tape. This function is intended for disaster
recovery backup. Individual libraries or objects cannot be restored from
a save storage tape.

Subject: Storage dump

Something caused our system to chew up all of our DASD last night
thereby freezing our nightly processing and we were unable to IPL. We
got IBM on the phone and they walked us through doing a storage dump to
tape and then getting the system (810 on 5.2) to IPL. My question is,
how do I read this tape so that I can make some sense of what I am
looking at in order to debug what might have caused the problem. Any
help would be appreciated
