Hello List,
I am trying to get a crash dump but am unable to with FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE-p2
/etc/defaults/rc.conf
dumpdir="/var/crash" # Directory where crash dumps are to be stored
savecore_flags="" # Used if dumpdev is enabled above, and present.
Z2873# sysctl -a |grep physmem
hw.physmem: 259481600
Swap: 1024M Total, 1024M Free
Z2873# dumpon -v /dev/ad0s1b
kernel dumps on /dev/ad0s1b
reboot -d
...
dumping 255M 2 chunks
Then nothing - the system doesn't reboot and I have to hard reset it.
When it comes back up there is no crash file in /var/crash
from /var/log/messages:
Sep 17 07:28:12 Z2873 kernel: ad0: 28615MB <IBM DJSA-230 JS6OAB0A> at
ata0-master UDMA66
Sep 17 07:28:12 Z2873 kernel: Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a
Sep 17 07:28:12 Z2873 savecore: no dumps found
Is this broken?
Thanks,
Steve
