Informatica 7.1:Core dump

Sometimes we may get core file into INFA server directory due to unexpected behaviour of INFA processes.

Coredump may occur due to:-
1/ In a KSH you are instructing to run a script in SH.
2/ From 7.1x client you trying to access/execute session of another version (8.x).
3/ the machine where pmserver reside is having less RAM.

Core dump files generally created by the kernel when a specific process tries to access a memory area which is not specified for that by the kernel.

How to debug
