Command-Line Option Differences Between crash
and MDB
The crash
-d
, -n
, and -w
command-line options are not supported by mdb
. The crash
dump file and name list (symbol table file) are specified as arguments to mdb
in the order of name list, crash dump file. To examine the live kernel, the mdb --Kernel
command should be specified with no additional arguments. Users who want to redirect the output of mdb
to a file or other output destination, should either employ the appropriate shell redirection operator following the mdb
invocation on the command line, or use the ::log
built-in dcmd.
