.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The \fBkgcore\fR command is used to make a copy of the kernel memory image of
a Sprite machine. The memory image may be used with \fBkgdb\fR
to examine the machine's state.
\fIMachine\fR is the name of a machine
running Sprite. The machine must be in the kernel debugger
for \fBkgcore\fR to work (see the -d option
of the \fBkmsg\fR command.)
\fBKgcore\fR writes the kernel memory image to the file vmcore unless
another file name is specified with the \fB\-o\fR option. This file may be
specified as a core image to \fBkgdb\fR.
.SH KEYWORDS
debug, kernel, core, kgdb
