Configure Miscellaneous

The Configure Miscellaneous page enables you to set up the storage system to save two core files in the /etc/crash directory when the storage system crashes:

• The core.n-small file, which contains everything except the file system buffers.

• The core.n file, which includes more information that might be essential for determining the cause of the crash; it is often necessary for investigating problems involving the file system.

The n in the file name of the core file is a number. Core files are created only during the first boot after a system crash. The files are created only during the first boot after a system boot.

The default setting enables core file saving.

To enable or disable saving the core files, complete the following steps:

1. In the Save Core Files field, select the checkbox to enable core file saves.

   If you want to disable core file saving, clear the checkbox.

2. Click Apply.
