    GCORE(1)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual		 GCORE(1)

    NAME
         gcore - get core image of running process

    SYNOPSIS
         gcore [-s][-c core] pid

    DESCRIPTION
         gcore creates a core image of each specified process, suit-
         able for use with adb(1).	By default the core image is
         written to the file <pid>.core.

         The options are:

         -c   Write the core file to the specified file instead of
    	  <pid>.core.

         -s   Stop the process while creating the core image and
    	  resume it when done.	This makes sure that the core
    	  dump will be in a consistent state.  The process is
    	  resumed even if it was already stopped.  Of course, you
    	  can obtain the same result by manually stopping the
    	  process with kill(1).

         The core image name was changed from core.<pid> to
         <pid>.core to prevent matching names like core.h and core.c
         when using programs such as find(1).

    FILES
         <process-id>.core	 The core image.

    BUGS
         If gcore encounters an error while creating the core image
         and the -s option was used the process will remain stopped.

         Swapped out processes and system processes (the swapper) may
         not be gcore'd.
