Running 4.5-RELEASE

I've got a server that crashes on a weekly basis and am trying to find out
why.

I noticed in the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file there is a setting for crash
dumps:
dumpdev="NO"            # Device name to crashdump to (or NO)
dumpdir="/var/crash"    # Directory where crash dumps are to be stored

But, I'm not sure what the "dumpdev" is supposed to be....
Any tips appreciated for what may be a real dumb question....

Best regards,
Jack L. Stone,
