Packaging Files

The packcore command produced the packcore.tar.Z archive, which contains the core file, core, and the modules.tar file. You now need to package packcore.tar.Z with the other files needed for troubleshooting. One method for packaging is to use the jar Java archive tool. This tool is included with all Java installations.

For example, to collect all files needed for core file analysis into file debug.jar, including packcore.tar.Z, hs_err_pid7145.log, app_environment.txt, and libjunwind.sl, issue the following command:

$ jar cvf debug.jar packcore.tar.Z hp_err_pid7145.log  \ 
     app_environment.txt libjunwind.sl
