Data gathered for core dumps on Linux®

The following data is gathered when running gpfs.snap with the --protocol core argument:

  • If core_pattern is set to dump to a file, then it gathers files matching that pattern.
  • If core_pattern is set to redirect to abrt, then everything is gathered from the directory specified in the abrt.conf file under DumpLocation. If this is not set, then /var/tmp/abrt is used.
  • Other core dump mechanisms are not supported by the script.
  • Any files in the directory /var/adm/ras/cores/ are also gathered.
