dumpsave(4)                                                     dumpsave(4)

NAME
     dumpsave - /etc/default/dumpsave file

DESCRIPTION
     The /etc/default/dumpsave file contains the default settings for the
     dumpsave(1M) command.

FORMAT
     This format of this file is identifier=value where both the identif-
     iers and values are defined by dumpsave(1M).

CONTENTS
     DUMPDIR
          Specifies the system dump directory.

     MINFREE
          Specifies the minimum number of 512-byte blocks that should be
          left free on the file system containing DUMPDIR. If the dump, or
          /unix, or both will not fit in DUMPDIR without leaving MINFREE
          blocks free, both the dump and /unix will not be saved.

     UNIXFILE
          Typically UNIXFILE is /unix.

     SWAPFILE
          Typically SWAPFILE is /dev/swap.

     ULIMIT
          The default value of ULIMIT is unlimited; however, ULIMIT can be
          set lower.

     TAPEDEV
          Specifies the absolute path name of a "no-rewind" tape device. If
          the memory dump does not fit in the directory specified with
          DUMPDIR, an attempt will be made to write the dump directly to
          this tape device.

          If TAPEDEV=none is set, the memory dump is not written to any
          tape device.

     TIMELIMIT
          Specifies the time period (in seconds) that has to be waited for
          input from the user when accessing the tape device.

DEFAULT VALUES
     DUMPDIR=/var/crash
     MINFREE=4096
     UNIXFILE=/unix
     SWAPFILE=/dev/rswap
     TAPEDEV=/dev/ios0/rstape004n
     TIMELIMIT=300
