VMS Help  —  SET  PROCESS  Qualifiers  /DUMP
       /DUMP[=NOW] [/ID=pid] [process-name]
       /NODUMP (default)

    Causes the contents of the address space to be written to the
    file named (image-name).DMP in the current default directory
    (where the image name is the same as the file name) when an image
    terminates because of an unhandled error. To specify a target
    process, indicate either the process ID or the process name.

    Using the NOW option (available on Alpha and Integrity server
    systems only) causes the targeted process to dump as soon as
    possible. This is especially useful for hung processes.

    You can then analyze the dump with the ANALYZE/PROCESS_DUMP
    utility, the Debugger, or the System Dump Analyzer (SDA).
