But am clueless ... yes you are thinking it, I said for you.
Clueless about where to find the output from my ps and trace.
My guess at this point is that it is gone.

Your ddb console ouput should be in the dmesg contained within the bsd.0.core
file.  You will want to use the dmesg command with -M and -N operands.  See
the dmesg(1) man page.

So what should I have done? Or where do I expect to find this output?
Besides logging in from the console server and getting a screen scrape of the output, I could not get the ilo to respond to me.

A great place to start is the crash(8) man page; I've found it a helpful
reference.


Thanks, I had read crash. I started to question my comprehension as the result I was getting looked like this:

hsdcert1:root:/root #dmesg -N /var/crash/bsd.0 -M /var/crash/bsd.0.core
dmesg: kvm_read:  (d0932000)
hsdcert1:root:/root #ps -N /var/crash/bsd.0 -M /var/crash/bsd.0.core -O paddr
  PID  PADDR TT  STAT       TIME COMMAND

 3004 d77372bc C5  Is+     0:08.00 (getty)

So it would seem that my ps and trace did not get appended to the file.
Or maybe ... appended you say?

I did the ps, then trace, then the boot dump.

So did the dump then overwrite my ps and trace?

Boot dump seems like it should be the last thing run, as it ends with a boot, right?
Can I just perform a dump? Guess I will find out is a few weeks.
