How to Recover From a Full Crash Dump Directory (Optional)

In this scenario, the system crashes but no room is left in the savecore directory, and you want to save some critical system crash dump information.

1. After the system reboots, log in as superuser or assume an equivalent role.

2. Clear out the savecore directory, usually /var/crash/hostname, by removing existing crash dump files that have already been sent to your service provider.

   • Alternatively, you can manually run the savecore command to specify an alternate directory that has sufficient disk space.

     # savecore [ directory ]
