DUMP is a standalone utility that you can invoke only
at the ISL> prompt from the physical console. It takes a snapshot or dump of system memory at a given point in time,
which can help HP support personnel to determine the cause of system
problems.
You must precede the DUMP command by a non-destructive boot. During the
non-destructive boot sequence, the bootstrap software saves the
machine's hardware state at the time that the boot was initiated. DUMP then takes control and dumps the processor internal
memory, main memory, and all allocated secondary storage marked
for dumping.
