Heap dump location
--------------------------------
Are WebSphere v6.1 heap dumps written to the /tmp directory or the $profile_root/ directory? I have read both.
The context of the /tmp directory was mentioned when an Out of Memory exception occurs. So does the location it gets written to depend on what causes the heap to be generated?
Is setting the /"-XX:HeapDumpPath=/" JVM option a way to specify the location of the heap file no matter how the heap is created?
Thanks!
