Specifies an alternate system symbol table for SDA to use, for
    example, if you want to analyze a crash dump taken on a processor
    running a different version of OpenVMS.

    /SYMBOL is ignored if it is specified with /OVERRIDE or /RELEASE.

    Format:

      /SYMBOL = system-symbol-table

    system-symbol-table

    The file specification of the SDA system symbol table required
    by SDA to analyze a system dump. The specified system-symbol-table
    must contain those symbols required by SDA to find certain
    locations in the executive image.

    If you do not specify the /SYMBOL qualifier, SDA uses
    SDA$READ_DIR:SYS$BASE_IMAGE.EXE to load system symbols into the
    SDA symbol table. When you specify the /SYMBOL qualifier,
    SDA assumes the default disk and directory to be SYS$DISK:[ ],
    that is, the disk and directory specified in your last DCL command
    SET DEFAULT. If you specify a file for this parameter that is
    not a system symbol table, SDA exits with a fatal error.
