Crashinfo as important file

[QI_Helpdesk]

Hi,

When I entered the command "show system files" on my PA-2050 it showed me

/opt/dpfs/var/cores/:
total 4.0K
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4.0K Jun 30 11:54 crashinfo

/opt/dpfs/var/cores/crashinfo:
total 0

/var/cores/:
total 589M
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4.0K Jun 30 11:52 crashinfo
-rw------- 1 root root 157M Jun 30 12:01 core.3417
-rw------- 1 root root 151M Jun 30 12:55 core.22984
-rw------- 1 root root 316M Jun 30 20:18 core.19527

/var/cores/crashinfo:
total 0

Appearantly there is a crashinfo file, but how can I read this file. To my knowledge I can't log in on the underlying Linux system.

Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance.

You can export and view the crashinfo file, if there is one, using the following CLI command:

>scp or tftp export core-file <control-plane or data-plane> from crashinfo to <destination
