CRASHDUMPLOCATION

This Essbase configuration setting specifies the location where Essbase saves a core dump file when an abnormal application termination occurs.

This setting must be used in conjunction with CRASHDUMP TRUE.

Syntax

CRASHDUMPLOCATION path

Where path is the fully-qualified path to the directory where Essbase should save the core dump file.

Description

In the event of abnormal program terminations, if CRASHDUMP is set to true and a CRASHDUMPLOCATION path is specified, the core files are generated in a uniquely named core file directory under the specified path.

If the location specified by path does not exist or does not have write permissions, the core files are generated in the default location, and an error message is logged in the server log files. The default location is described in CRASHDUMP.

Example

CRASHDUMP /EssbaseServer/crash
