NAME
       crashdc - Diagnostic data collection for a running or crashed system

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/crashdc [system-kernel] [core-image]

DESCRIPTION
       The  crashdc utility examines the core image of the operating system to
       extract critical diagnostic data. This utility is a shell  script  that
       invokes	several tools and commands that extract selected parameters of
       a running or a crashed system (for example, system configuration,  run‐
       ning processes, and panic messages).

       The arguments to the crashdc utility are the system kernel and the core
       image. The default values are /vmunix and  /dev/mem,  respectively.  If
       you specify no arguments, the crashdc utility examines the running sys‐
       tem.

       The system usually invokes the crashdc utility during  system  startup.
       If  the	most  recent core dump has been saved by the savecore command,
       both the core image and the system kernel  (respectively	 vmcore.n  and
       vmunix.n,  where	 the  variable n is the crash number) are saved in the
       crash directory (by default, /var/adm/crash). Also, the crashdc utility
       saves  the output as the file crash-data.n (where the variable n is the
       crash number) in the crash directory. The crashdc  utility  is  invoked
       only if crash-data.n output in the crash directory does not exist or is
       not from the most recent crash.
