A core dump occurs when the CSS experiences a fatal error. The CSS allows you
to enable or disable core dumps. Core dumps are enabled by default.
When the CSS experiences a fatal error and core dumps are enabled, the CSS:
Writes information about the fatal error to the Core directory of the volume
•
root (for example, c:\core) on either the hard or Flash disk. The CSS stores
one dump file per slot for each card type until the disk (Flash or hard disk) is
full. Files can be 10 to 20 MB in size.
Reboots automatically.
•
Core dump information is for Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) use only.
When the CSS experiences a fatal error and core dumps are disabled, the CSS
reboots automatically. The CSS does not write information to the hard disk or the
Flash disk.
For a Flash disk-based system, if the core dump file is older than 15 minutes, the
file may be overwritten. If you want to save the core dump file for later
examination, archive the file to another directory or disk before it is overwritten.
For details on using the archive log command, see the
Startup-Config File"
