2) Creating a partition on that SCSI/LUN device
3) Install the dump tool by using the "zipl -d /dev/mapper/<scsi-device-partition>"
4) Edit /etc/zipl.conf to add the following lines:
[scsidump]
dumpto=/dev/mapper/<scsi-device-partition>
5) Run "zipl scsidump"
6) Run dump using the following in the zVM-Console:
- "#cp set dumpdev portname <8-digit-of-wwpn_part1> <8-digit-of-wwpn_part2> lun <8-digit-of-lun_part1> <8-digit-of-lun_part2>
- #cp ipl <no-of-zfcp-adaptor> dump
7) Start system normal again
8)  Get dump with "zgetdump /dev/mapper/<scsi-device-partition> > dump.elf"
