CSMIM-T1 Hardware Installation Guide

The assigned name depends on the number of characters per file name
that the dump host supports. For hosts supporting file names longer than
14 characters (e.g., BSD hosts), dump files are named dump.addr. The
file extension addr is the CSMIM-T1’s IP address.

For hosts that limit file names to 14 characters (e.g., System V hosts), a
dump creates two additional directories under /usr/spool/erpcd/bfs. The
name of the first directory is dump; the second directory uses the
CSMIM-T1’s IP network address as its name. The dump file uses the
CSMIM-T1’s IP host address as its name.

\

Each dump file contains a complete image of the CSMIM-T1 RAM
memory and hardware state. The amount of space required for a dump file
varies according to the port configuration. The ROM Monitor config
command displays the amount of memory for the CSMIM-T1.

Table 5-10

shows sample dump file names. All pathnames are relative to

the file /usr/spool/erpcd/bfs.

CSMIM-T1 Dump File Naming Conventions

NOTE

Rename any crash dumps that you want to save. The
CSMIM-T1 overwrites crash dumps.

NOTE

The tftp dump names are user-defined. If a name is not
specified, the CSMIM-T1 uses the bfs convention.
