<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi Tim,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2> My particular core file was generated last Thursday when a PC
running Exceed had a Fox Select window freeze up. I had to shutdown Foxview (on
the PC) to get the Fox Select window to go away, and I found the core file on Friday
morning.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2> "file core" indicated the culprit was Fox
Select, and the timestamp was from Thursday, so I am "assuming" the PC
exceed problem caused the core dump.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> Is Fox Select causing your core dumps?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2> If you get one every Monday and it has the same timestamp, you
might look for something in cron that runs about the same time.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2> A few years ago on my first Foxboro system I had a core
file generated every five minutes by the historian reduction group program. It
wasn't very big, but it was dumped every five minutes for at least five months.
My predecessor had deleted some collection points but had not removed them from the
reduction groups.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2> Didn't seem to cause any harm, but it was odd when I found the
core files . . .</FONT>
