How to determine which process a core file was generated from?
In order to determine which process a core file was generated from, connect to a Linux or UNIX machine and run the file command as specified below:
file /path/to/core/file/core
For example:
rh64:/home>file /home/test/core.MSTRSvr.14375
/home/test/core.MSTRSvr.14375: ELF 64-bit LSB core file x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), SVR4-style, from '/opt/mstr/sw/IntelligenceServer/bin/MSTRSvr -w /opt/mstr/home/IntelligenceServe'
