Viewing process dumps
You can display and download process dumps in the Maintenance > Process Dumps page. A process dump is a saved
copy of memory, including the contents of all memory, bytes, hardware registers, and status indicators. It is
periodically taken to restore the system in the event of failure. Process dump files can help you diagnose problems in
the system.
To view process dump files
1. Choose Maintenance > Process Dumps.
2. Click the filename to open a file or save the file to disk.

Capturing and uploading TCP dumps
You can create, download, and upload TCP dumps in the Maintenance > TCP Dumps page.
TCP dumps contain summary information for every Internet packet received or transmitted on the interface to help
diagnose problems in the system.
The AltaVault provides an easy way to capture and retrieve multiple capture files from the Management Console. You
can create TCP dumps from multiple interfaces at the same time, limit the size of the TCP dump, and schedule a
specific date and time to capture TCP information. Scheduling and limiting a TCP capture file by time or size allows
unattended captures.
The top of the TCP Dumps page displays a list of existing TCP dumps and the bottom of the page displays controls to
create a capture file. The bottom of the page also includes the capture files that are currently running, and controls to
create a trigger that stops a capture when a specific event occurs. The Running Capture Name list includes captures
running at a particular time. It includes captures started manually and also any captures that were scheduled previously
and are now running.
To capture TCP trace dumps
1. Choose Maintenance > TCP Dumps.
2. Under TCP Dumps Currently Running, complete the configuration as described in this table.
