How to collect VSG memory dump in case application crashes?
Important to know:
- Before VSG 8.0, there was 1 Connector (Proxy) instance/service and multiple Worker instances/services (1 - 7)
- Since VSG 8.0 there is now a Connector (Proxy) instance/service (1 - 7) per worker instance/service (1 - 7)
The normal process is to enable Complete memory dump, this will capture in the event there is an Unhandled Exception.
Step-by-step guide
Via BVMS CC: Would be needed to enable for each instance
Via CM: Would be needed to enable for each instance
If in the event that the crash is due to a "Memory Leak"
- this would cause also all other applications also to crash due to all the memory on the sever to be consumed by 1 application.
- So the normal way of collecting the dump files would not work as there is no more memory available for the application to generate such a dump.
- In this case you should contact technical support for additional instructions how to create a dump file.
