Answer / rk_info1
when OS generates any fatal error on the console it will
write in a crash dump it is nothing but a diskspace which
we configured while configuring crash dump
(/etc/crashdump.conf) later we can refer this file for the
root cause of the issue.
When process generates any error it will write it on the
coredump.
