Subject: Message regarding core dumps and VLSI users



Hi all,

Many vlsi users will run out of the disk quota, simple because the
simulations will go bad and will create a 'core' file in the directory
where users are running simulations (usually vlsi or vlsi1 directory).

To avoid the system from creating core dumps, please do the following in
vlsi/vlsi1 directory:
rm core
touch core
chmod 000 core

This will ensure that core files are never written to by the cadence
tools. users can use similar approcah for other projects that create core
dumps.

Thanks,
