# Script to save core files, to be run from post_crash_dump_hook
# Written by Markus Armbruster, 2008
# This script is in the public domain.
# Use: edit configuration variables below to taste, then set
# post_crash_dump_hook = /wherever/savecore
# in econfig. Make sure to run the server with core dumps enabled
# (ulimit -c unlimited).
# Rules when running as post_crash_dump_hook:
# Data directory is working directory.
# stdin, stdout, stderr are redirected to /dev/null, except in debug
# mode
# Configuration
# How your system names core files
#
# This is a pattern rather than a name, because modern kernels can put
# fancy stuff in the name we can't always predict.
core_pattern=core.*
#core_pattern=emp_server.core
#core_pattern=core
# Where to save core dumps
#
# If you leave cores in the data directory, backup scripts may pick
# them up, which is probably not what you want.
core_dir=../core-dumps
# Whom to send mail (leave empty to not send any)
privlog=
# Program to send mail
mailx=mailx
#mailx=mail
# End of configuration
saved=
