             Summary: Packing a core file in hawq
                 Key: HAWQ-1480
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-1480
             Project: Apache HAWQ
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Command Line Tools
            Reporter: Shubham Sharma
            Assignee: Radar Lei


Currently there is no way to packing a core file with its context – executable, application and system shared libraries in hawq. This information can be later unpacked on another system and helps in debugging. It is a useful feature to quickly gather all the data needed from a crash/core generated on the system to analyze it later.

Another open source project, greenplum, uses a script [https://github.com/greenplum-db/gpdb/blob/master/gpMgmt/sbin/packcore] to collect this information. Tested this script against Hawq's installation and it collects the required information needed for debug.

Can this be merged into Hawq, if yes, I can submit a pull request and test it.
