Hello
If we assume that you have a Foxboro
support contract, then they may wish to
retrieve these files before you delete
them.
There is a shell script command called
"iscda" that can be run on these to
generate a report that "may" be useful.
Use as follows:
iscda unix.0 vmcore.0 > log.0
Now you can examine log.0 for all sorts of
interesting data. (if you are an O.S. person :-) ).
I would not expect to get these files at all
so the fact that you did get them may
be of interest to your Foxboro support people.
