Command History
Usage Information
The Kernel core dump can be large and may take up to 5 to 30 minutes to upload. FTOS does not
overwrite application core dumps so you should delete them as necessary to conserve space on the
flash; if the flash is out of memory, the coredump is aborted. On the S-Series, if the FTP server is not
reachable, the application coredump is aborted. FTOS completes the coredump process and wait until
the upload is complete before rebooting the system.
