Updated

You can create a dump of Commvault services or processes on a Linux computer.

Note

This functionality is available only on Linux computers that have either GDB (GNU Debugger) or gcore installed.

Procedure

  • Enter the following command:

    phpCopy code
        
    

    Galaxy -instance <inst_name> -dump <pid> -dump <svc_name>

    Where:

    • <inst_name> is an instance name.

    • <pid> is a process identification number (PID).

    • <svc_name> is a service name. This name is what is reported when you run the command commvault list.

Example 1

To create a dump of a process with PID 12345, enter the following command:

phpCopy code
    
Galaxy -dump 12345
    

Example 2

To create a dump of a service named "cvfwd", enter the following command:

phpCopy code
    
Galaxy -dump cvfwd
    

Example 3

To create a dump of a service named "cvfwd" for an instance named "Instance001", enter the following command:
