When your system panics, it will attempt to save a crash dump in the dedicated dump volume. Automatic extraction of crash dumps is not enabled by default, but you can run 'savecore' to extract the dump after creating the directory for them. Then 'run savecore -f <file>' to uncompress the dump. You can use mdb to inspect the crash. If you want to enable automatic crash dump extraction for later, run 'savecore -y' Example: # pkg install mdb # dumpadm Dump content: kernel pages Dump device: /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/dump (dedicated) Savecore directory: /var/crash/ichiban Savecore enabled: no Save compressed: on # mkdir /var/crash/`hostname` # savecore # cd /var/crash/`hostname` # savecore vmcore.0.z # mdb 0 <<EOF $<msgbuf $C EOF You can file a bug on our issue tracker via http://bugs.openindiana.org/ although the report may be moved the illumos-gate if it's not specific to OI. Be sure to include information describing how to reproduce the crash if possible as well as the output from mdb.
