Coredumpinfo on ASA

[mahesh18]

Hi Everyone,

On my home ASA  i see 

ciscoasa# dir

Directory of disk0:/

13     drwx  2048        13:58:24 May 12 2013  coredumpinfo

When i ran the command

ciscoasa#   sh coredump filesystem

'disk0:' has no coredump filesystem

ciscoasa#

Need to confirm if something is wrong with ASA  or not ?

Also when  i do  more flash:coredumpinfo   i see lot  of output?

Regards

MAhesh

Hello Mahesh,

Why exactly are you concerned about the core-dump? this is use by Cisco Tac to further investigate crashes when the show crash does not provide enough information.

Did the ASA crash? if so is there a crash file?

If this is the case, it is better to open a TAC case to investigate the root cause and get a software version not affected.

Regards,

Felipe.

Hi Felipe,

i am not  concerned about the core dump.

As there was  power  outage and ASA  got rebooted i was trying to check if all is good with ASA.

How can i check if there is crashinfo file.

I did sh crashinfo  but the  output is too long.

dir /all  does not show crashinfo it only shows coredump.

thanks

Mahesh

Hello Mahesh,

That is the output required for us to decode ( the show crash ) and yes it' is a huge file.

You will need to open a case with us in order to decode it for you and provide you an answer to this,
