Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

In Check Point Gaia, you can enable core dumping through the command line interface (clish) using the following command:

set core-dump enable

This command activates the core dump mechanism, allowing the system to generate core dump files when user processes crash. Remember to save the configuration after enabling core dumps with the command:

save config

Why other options are incorrect:

B . set core-dump total: This command is used to set the total disk space limit for core dump files, not to enable core dumping itself.

C . set user-dump enable: There is no such command in Gaia clish for enabling core dumps.

D . set core-dump per_process: This command sets the maximum number of core dump files allowed per process, but it doesn't enable core dumping.

I think the command for enabling core dumps is related to "core-dump," but I can't remember if it's "enable" or "total."
