Description Chao Ye 2010-12-15 10:40:36 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #663303 +++

Description of problem:
When I tried to copy vmcore from netdump-server to netdump-client, I encountered a weird problem:
[root@pogolinux-2 ~]# ls -lsh /var/crash/10.16.65.30-2010-12-14-22\:09/
total 29G
76K -rw-------  1 netdump netdump  67K Dec 14 22:55 log
16G -rw-------  1 netdump netdump 260G Dec 14 22:55 vmcore
The vmcore takes 16G, but scp tried to copy 260G. In our network condition, it'll take more than 30hours!!!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.9-92.EL
netdump-0.7.16-15
netdump-server-0.7.16-15

How reproducible:

what are you doing?  Why clone a bug to the same component Os version/release etc?
