Starting the PM Dump Facility Dump Formatter

The PM Dump Facility dump formatter can be accessed by using one of the following:

• By clicking on the PM Dump Facility in the Problem Determination Tools folder. You then click on the File action-bar item, select the Open menu choice, and select the dump file you want to format.

• From the SYSLOG Details window by selecting the Tools menu-bar option (see Displaying Error Log Entry Data).

• By dragging a dump file and dropping it onto the PM Dump Facility icon.

  When you drop multiple copies of the dump files to the PM Dump Facility icon, the dump formatter opens one window for each copy of the dump.

• By selecting Dumps from the Actions menu-bar option on the FFST setup window.

When you start the PM Dump Facility dump formatter without an initial dump file, a window appears with four action-bar choices: File, Edit, Options, and Help.. Use the File option to select the dump file you want to view. When you open the file, the Analyze option appears.
