Core Dumps

A core dump is the contents of RAM a program uses at the time of a software exception and is used to identify the cause of the exception.

There are two types of core dumps: application and kernel.
  • Application core dump is the contents of the memory allocated to a failed application at the time of an exception.
  • Kernel core dump is the central component of an operating system that manages system processors and memory allocation and makes these facilities available to applications. A kernel core dump is the contents of the memory in use by the kernel at the time of an exception.
