While this might cause some issues with programs that expect or don't expect separate file systems under /var, there is no real reason to put it in /var. You could just as easily put the file system in /xzy/acb and make the appropriate change via coreadm. > This is especially useful with in-house applications running on > servers. > Not a bad idea. You might also consider having a centralized core saving machine -- /xzy/acb above could be NFS mounted. NB. In OpenSolaris, savecore is disabled by default so /var/crash should not collect cores, by default. You can always dump the last kernel core by running savecore at your leisure. You can also send savecore's output to another directory somewhere. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
