See .Xr xo_parse_args 3 for details on command line arguments. .It Fl C Check to see if a dump exists, and display a brief message to indicate the status. An exit status of 0 indicates that a dump is there, 1 indicates that none exists. This option is compatible only with the .Op Fl v option. .It Fl c Clear the dump, so that future invocations of .Nm will ignore it. .It Fl f Force a dump to be taken even if either the dump was cleared or if the dump header information is inconsistent. .It Fl k Do not clear the dump after saving it. .It Fl m Ar maxdumps Maximum number of dumps to store. Once the number of stored dumps is equal to .Ar maxdumps the counter will restart from .Dv 0 . .It Fl u Uncompress the dump in case it was compressed by the kernel. .It Fl v Print out some additional debugging information. Specify twice for more information. .It Fl z Compress the dump (see .Xr gzip 1 ) . The dump may already be compressed if the kernel was configured to do so by .Xr dumpon 8 . In this case, the option has no effect. .El .Pp The .Nm utility looks for dumps on each device specified by the .Ar device argument(s), or on each device in .Pa /etc/fstab marked as .Dq dump or .Dq swap . The .Nm utility checks the core dump in various ways to make sure that it is complete. If it passes these checks, it saves the core image in .Ar directory Ns Pa /vmcore.# and information about the core in .Ar directory Ns Pa /info.# . If the core is encrypted, it saves the dump key in .Ar directory Ns Pa /key.# . The core can be later decrypted using .Xr decryptcore 8 . For kernel textdumps generated with the .Xr textdump 4 facility, output will be stored in the .Xr tar 5 format and named .Ar directory Ns Pa /textdump.tar.# . The .Dq # is the number from the first line of the file .Ar directory Ns Pa /bounds , and it is incremented and stored back into the file each time .Nm successfully runs. .Pp The .Nm utility also checks the available disk space before attempting to make the copies. If there is insufficient disk space in the file system containing .Ar directory , or if the file .Ar directory Ns Pa /minfree exists and the number of free kilobytes (for non-superusers) in the file system after the copies were made would be less than the number in the first line of this file, the copies are not attempted. .Pp If .Nm successfully copies the kernel and the core dump, the core dump is cleared so that future invocations of .Nm will ignore it. .Pp The .Nm utility is meant to be called near the end of the initialization file .Pa /etc/rc (see .Xr rc 8 ) . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr gzip 1 , .Xr getbootfile 3 , .Xr libxo 3 , .Xr xo_parse_args 3 , .Xr textdump 4 , .Xr tar 5 , .Xr crashinfo 8 , .Xr decryptcore 8 , .Xr dumpon 8 , .Xr syslogd 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm utility appeared in .Bx 4.1 . .Pp Support for kernel textdumps appeared in .Fx 7.1 . .Sh BUGS The minfree code does not consider the effect of compression or sparse files.
