I believe that the intent of question was how to induce a hung system to dump core. That TOC that buffoonix mentions is the key. It stands for "Transfer of Control". When the box is running HP-UX, the TOC routine is for coredumps. Each HP 9000 has some way to interact with the firmware from the system console to force a TOC. And a few even had a switch on the box. You need to look at the docs for your particular model to get your procedure. Or use the "model" command to find out your model, posts the results, and someone may be able to find your TOC procedure.
