Christina,
You have to have it. readcore is shipped with NetView on AIX platforms and
has been since late in Version 5.1.
It is not is your normal path, /usr/OV/bin, but in /usr/OV/service. Please
look again. To use it, you
must first also have installed the native AIX tool, dbx, which readcore
uses to read the core. That is in /usr/bin.
Can't find it? Get out your AIX media and install it. Last time I did it,
it was in bos.adt.debug,
and you need to install via SMIT:
Base Application Development Debuggers
Base Application Development Libraries
Base Application Development Toolkit
Then you can run /usr/OV/service/readcore and call Support.
Why call Support? Because even after you format the core.report it won't mean
very much unless you have the source code
code for netmon to look at. If you insist on trying to debug it yourself, a
better way is to run the full netmon trace
(issue netmon -M -1 from the command line) and wait for it to core again. Then
look at the netmon.trace file to see what the
last thing it was doing when it died. But if the problem is internal to
netmon, you will have to call Support anyway,
because only they can give you a new executable which resolves the problem.
But you will have a much easier time
communicatring your problem to Support if you already have a core.reprot and a
netmon.trace.
Hope this helps

Asunto: RE: [NV-L] How can I read a core?
There is a tool for that : /usr/OV/service/readcore
syntax :
/usr/OV/service/readcore <corefile>
it creates a file (core.report) in your current directory
good luck.
