Abstract
A method, system and a computer program product for managing a computing system crash. Memory of the computing system is separated into at least two classifications, referred to herein as a dumpable area and a non-dumpable area. Upon detection of an operating system crash in the computing system, an operating system module prevents a dumping operation of the memory, including preventing access to the dumpable memory area, and divides the non-dumpable area into a new dumpable area and a new non-dumpable area. At such time as the operating system is rebooted, the dumping operation is initiated and completed in the dumpable area, and resumed operations use the non-dumpable area.
