Command Types Switch command.
Command Modes Privileged.
Usage Guidelines The crash information file contains extended system information that is captured quickly when the
system reloads because of an error condition. Like the crash-dump file, the crash-info file is stored in
the file system. The information in the crash information file should be used in addition to the core dump
information and does not replace that information. By examining both the crash-info file and core dump
file, Cisco TAC can better analyze an error condition.
To clear a system crash information file, enter the set system crashinfo-file command with no
arguments.
