dump on /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s1 size 7000 MB



Dear managers,

after booting a SF 240 I get the message

dump on /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s1 size 7000 MB

on the console. My understanding of this message is that Solaris found
a core dump that has been written to the swap partition by an earlier
session. I suppose I should manually remove this file to free the
space. The swap partition has only 7GByte. But how can I do that?

Thanks,

Andreas
