PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dump collecting method for preventing dump of data on a main storage device in which collection of dump is unnecessary, and for reducing the capacity of a secondary storage device for storing the dump, and for shortening dump collecting time at the same time. SOLUTION: Data to be stored in a main storage device are defined as segment units, and at the time of storing the data in each segment, whether or not it is necessary to dump the contents of data when a computer system breaks down is designated. When failure is generated in the computer system, only the segment which should be dumped is outputted to a secondary storage device by referring to the designation.
