I am very open to using IPCS (although I still have to learn use it.)

When I use SDUMP, I get the following message on the console:
*74 IEA793A NO DUMP DATA SETS AVAILABLE FOR DUMPID=011 BY JOB (FLASHME4). USE THE DUMPDS COMMAND OR REPLY D TO DELETE THE DUMP

I tried:
DD ADD VOL=HKYSY4

18.05.26 HKYP           dd add,vol=HKYSY4
18.05.26 HKYP           IGD100I 1213 ALLOCATED TO DDNAME SYS00051
 DATACLAS (        )
18.05.26 HKYP           IEE855I DUMPDS COMMAND RESPONSE
DUMPDS COMMAND SYS1.DUMP DATA SET STATUS
  DASD VOLUMES ADDED: HKYSY4

Then:
dd alloc=active

Then:
DD ADD DSN=01

18.07.01 HKYP           dd add,dsn=01
18.07.01 HKYP           IEE855I DUMPDS COMMAND RESPONSE
DUMPDS COMMAND SYS1.DUMP DATA SET STATUS
  SYS1.DUMP DASD DATA SETS NOT ADDED:
LOCATE FAILED: (01,08)

Suggestion?

SDUMP in MVS is for creating an unformatted dump to be viewed online with IPCS. 
For a short formated storage dump use SNAPX. However, once you get used to it 
you may find SDUMP and IPCS more convenient.

Subject: SDUMPs

All,

Trying to debug a program I am porting from z/VSE to z/OS.
Unfortunately, the debug process on z/OS is a lot different from z/VSE.

Normally, all I want is to create either a small SDUMP so I can look at
some storage before I take the program to an end. On z/VSE, I just use
the SDUMP macro and the storage is printed on the z/VSE equivalent of
SYSOUT=*.

I am using:
     SDUMP HDR='GP_VOL',STORAGE=((2),(3))

Is there any way to force the data to the JES2 SYSOUT?
