Question Generate core dumps
Code:
kill -SEGV <pid>

gives me the core file for that process but also terminates the process.

Can I not get the core dump without terminating the process ?

Not sure if hp-ux support it but the gcore command is one way to achieve that on other platforms.

Code:
hs_err_pidxxxx.log

file generated.

Can you explain me why and how can I get that too ?
