Greetings, Given that the server that I need to create a dumpdev on has has a slice dedicated to /var with *more* than adequate space to accommodate the the resources needed for a dumpdev, as well as everything else in /var. Is it enough to simply: # mkdir /var/crash # chmod 700 /var/crash and set *dumpdev* in */etc/fstab* as such?: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/ad0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s1d /var ufs rw 2 2 # dumpdev /dev/ad0s1d /var/crash ufs sw 0 0 #cdrom /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 then bounce the system and *assume* I have a /suitable/ and /useable/ dumpdev available? Sorry if I have made any ridiculous assumptions, and thank you for your time. --Chris -- panic: kernel trap (ignored)
