 Hi,

     Instead of eliminating the system dump file, would it be
to move it to a TK50 type tape drive?  The obvious disadvantage
is if you need the drive for something else and the system crashes
during that 'something else'.  This wouldn't be a problem if you
had two tape drives, but for small systems it probably isn't cost
effective (a bigger system disk would be better).  Any comments?
