What to Do
1. Check that the core dump process is enabled. As root, type the dumpadm
command.
# dumpadm
Dump content: kernel pages
Dump device: /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1 (swap)
Savecore directory: /var/crash/machinename
Savecore enabled: yes
By default, the core dump process is enabled in the Solaris 8 operating environment.
2. Verify that there is sufficient swap space to dump memory. Type the swap -l
command.
# swap -l
swapfile
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s1
To determine how many bytes of swap space are available, multiply the number in
the blocks column by 512. Taking the number of blocks from the first entry,
c0t3d0s0, calculate as follows:
4097312 x 512 = 2097823744
The result is approximately 2 Gbytes.
