Dump viewer reading dumps

Currently today the customer is unable to view a dump from a processor if it's not active in the complex.

If a user has his debug connection to cpua and is trying to debug a dump that happened on cpuc. .
The system that took the dump needs to be active in the complex. When you take the dump, it's written to the dump file to a directory /tpfdbgdumpX where X is the CPU id. In this case, the dump is written on processor C, to /tpfdbgdumpC. When you are connected to CPU A, and you go to view the dump on processor C, what is done is issue a SIPCC to processor C, so that processor C can read the dump file, and process the information and etc. But SIPCC requires that the processor be active. Is it possible to view the dump file directly rather the having the requirement of needing that process active in the complex.
