Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a dump output control mechanism to automatically dump out information in a main storage device by not only monitoring a system but also detecting the system trouble in a program control mechanism by a system monitor mechanism. CONSTITUTION:A program control mechanism 2 loads data of programs P1 to Pn to a main storage device 4 to control the programs. If system trouble is detected during this control, a system monitor mechanism 3 instructs preparation of dump output to a dump output control mechanism 5 and instructs the stop of program control to the program control mechanism 2 after the completion of this preparation. When the system monitor mechanism 3 instructs the start of dump output to the dump output control mechanism 5, information in a main storage device 4 is outputted to an optical disk device 6 based on this indication. The system monitor mechanism 3 instructs the restart of the system, system monitor, and the start of program control to the program control mechanism 2. Thus information is automatically dumped out.

うに指示する。The operation of the memory dump output control system configured as described above will be explained. First, the program control mechanism 2 loads the programs P1 to Pn and the data of the programs P1 to Pn into the main storage device 4, and performs program control. When the program control mechanism 2 detects a system failure while controlling the programs P1 to Pn, it reports the system failure to the system monitoring mechanism. The system monitoring mechanism 3 instructs the dump output control mechanism 5 to prepare for dump output, waits for completion of the dump output preparation, and then instructs the program control mechanism 2 to stop program control. Based on this, the program control mechanism 2 notifies the system control mechanism 3 that program control has been stopped. The system control mechanism 3 instructs the dump output control mechanism 5 to start dump output.

The system monitoring mechanism 3 instructs the program control mechanism 2 to restart the system and start system monitoring and program control.
