Introduction
ProcDump is a command-line utility whose primary purpose is monitoring an application for CPU spikes and generating crash dumps during a spike that an administrator or developer can use to determine the cause of the spike. ProcDump also includes hung window monitoring (using the same definition of a window hang that Windows and Task Manager use), unhandled exception monitoring and can generate dumps based on the values of system performance counters. It also can serve as a general process dump utility that you can embed in other scripts.
Using ProcDump
usage: procdump [-a] [[-c|-cl CPU usage] [-u] [-s seconds]] [-n exceeds] [-e [1 [-b]] [-f ] [-g] [-h] [-l] [-m|-ml commit usage] [-ma | -mp] [-o] [-p|-pl counter threshold] [-r] [-t] [-d ] [-64] <[-w]< process name or service name or PID> [dump file] | -i | -u | -x
[arguments]> ] [-? [ -e]
ParameterDescription
-a | Avoid outage. Requires -r. If the trigger will cause the target to suspend for a prolonged time due to an exceeded concurrent dump limit, the trigger will be skipped. |
-at | Avoid outage at Timeout. Cancel the trigger's collection at N seconds. |
-b | Treat debug breakpoints as exceptions (otherwise ignore them). |
-c | CPU threshold at which to create a dump of the process. |
-cl | CPU threshold below which to create a dump of the process. |
-d | Invoke the minidump callback routine named MiniDumpCallbackRoutine of the specified DLL. |
-e | Write a dump when the process encounters an unhandled exception. Include the 1 to create dump on first chance exceptions. |
-f | Filter the first chance exceptions. Wildcards (*) are supported. To just display the names without dumping, use a blank ("") filter. |
-fx | Filter (exclude) on the content of exceptions and debug logging. Wildcards are supported. |
-g | Run as a native debugger in a managed process (no interop). |
-h | Write dump if process has a hung window (does not respond to window messages for at least 5 seconds). |
-i | Install ProcDump as the AeDebug postmortem debugger. Only -ma, -mp, -d and -r are supported as additional options. |
-k | Kill the process after cloning (-r), or at the end of dump collection |
-l | Display the debug logging of the process. |
-m | Memory commit threshold in MB at which to create a dump. |
-ma | Write a dump file with all process memory. The default dump format only includes thread and handle information. |
-mc | Write a custom dump file. Include memory defined by the specified MINIDUMP_TYPE mask (Hex). |
-md | Write a Callback dump file. Include memory defined by the MiniDumpWriteDump callback routine named MiniDumpCallbackRoutine of the specified DLL. |
-mk | Also write a Kernel dump file. Includes the kernel stacks of the threads in the process. OS doesn't support a kernel dump (-mk) when using a clone (-r). When using multiple dump sizes, a kernel dump is taken for each dump size. |
-ml | Trigger when memory commit drops below specified MB value. |
-mm | Write a mini dump file (default). |
-mp | Write a dump file with thread and handle information, and all read/write process memory. To minimize dump size, memory areas larger than 512MB are searched for, and if found, the largest area is excluded. A memory area is the collection of same sized memory allocation areas. The removal of this (cache) memory reduces Exchange and SQL Server dumps by over 90%. |
-n | Number of dumps to write before exiting. |
-o | Overwrite an existing dump file. |
-p | Trigger on the specified performance counter when the threshold is exceeded. Note: to specify a process counter when there are multiple instances of the process running, use the process ID with the following syntax: "\Process(_)\counter" |
-pl | Trigger when performance counter falls below the specified value. |
-r | Dump using a clone. Concurrent limit is optional (default 1, max 5). CAUTION: a high concurrency value may impact system performance. - Windows 7 : Uses Reflection. OS doesn't support -e. - Windows 8.0 : Uses Reflection. OS doesn't support -e. - Windows 8.1+: Uses PSS. All trigger types are supported. |
-s | Consecutive seconds before dump is written (default is 10). |
-t | Write a dump when the process terminates. |
-u | Treat CPU usage relative to a single core (used with -c). As the only option, Uninstalls ProcDump as the postmortem debugger. |
-w | Wait for the specified process to launch if it's not running. |
-wer | Queue the (largest) dump to Windows Error Reporting. |
-x | Launch the specified image with optional arguments. If it is a Store Application or Package, ProcDump will start on the next activation (only). |
-64 | By default ProcDump will capture a 32-bit dump of a 32-bit process when running on 64-bit Windows. This option overrides to create a 64-bit dump. Only use for WOW64 subsystem debugging. |
-? | Use -? -e to see example command lines. |
If you omit the dump file name, it defaults to< processname>_.dmp.
Use the -accepteula command line option to automatically accept the Sysinternals license agreement.
Automated Termination:
Setting an event with name "procdump-" is the same as typing Ctrl+C to gracefully terminate ProcDump
Filename:
Default dump filename: PROCESSNAME_YYMMDD_HHMMSS.dmp
The following substitutions are supported:
PROCESSNAME Process Name
Process ID PID
EXCEPTIONCODE Exception Code
YYMMDD Year/Month/Day
HHMMSS Hour/Minute/Second
Examples
Write a mini dump of a process named 'notepad' (only one match can exist):
C:\>procdump notepad
Write a full dump of a process with PID '4572':
C:\>procdump -ma 4572
Write 3 mini dumps 5 seconds apart of a process named 'notepad':
C:\>procdump -s 5 -n 3 notepad
Write up to 3 mini dumps of a process named 'consume' when it exceeds 20% CPU usage for five seconds:
C:\>procdump -c 20 -s 5 -n 3 consume
Write a mini dump for a process named 'hang.exe' when one of it's Windows is unresponsive for more than 5 seconds:
C:\>procdump -h hang.exe hungwindow.dmp
Write a mini dump of a process named 'outlook' when total system CPU usage exceeds 20% for 10 seconds:
C:\>procdump outlook -p "\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time" 20
Write a full dump of a process named 'outlook' when Outlook's handle count exceeds 10,000:
C:\>procdump -ma outlook -p "\Process(Outlook)\Handle Count" 10000
Write a MiniPlus dump of the Microsoft Exchange Information Store when it has an unhandled exception:
C:\>procdump -mp -e store.exe
Display without writing a dump, the exception codes/names of w3wp.exe:
C:\>procdump -e 1 -f "" w3wp.exe
Write a mini dump of w3wp.exe if an exception's code/name contains 'NotFound':
C:\>procdump -e 1 -f NotFound w3wp.exe
Launch a process and then monitor it for exceptions:
C:\>procdump -e 1 -f "" -x c:\dumps consume.exe
Register for launch, and attempt to activate, a modern 'application'. A new ProcDump instance will start when it activated to monitor for exceptions:
C:\>procdump -e 1 -f "" -x c:\dumpsMicrosoft.BingMaps_8wekyb3d8bbwe!AppexMaps
Register for launch of a modern 'package'. A new ProcDump instance will start when it is (manually) activated to monitor for exceptions:
C:\>procdump -e 1 -f "" -x c:\dumps Microsoft.BingMaps_1.2.0.136_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe
Register as the Just-in-Time (AeDebug) debugger. Makes full dumps in c:\dumps.
C:\>procdump -ma -i c:\dumps
See a list of example command lines (the examples are listed above):
C:\>procdump -? -e

[개요]
- 이 문서는 어플리케이션 프로세스의 메모리덤프를 생성하는 방법을 기술합니다. 블루스크린(BSoD) 등과 관련된 커널메모리 덤프는 다루지 않습니다.
- 기술지원 담당자 등 자신이 개발하지 않은 프로세스의 메모리덤프를 작성해야 하는 분들을 위해 작성되었습니다.
[프로세스 Crash 발생시 메모리덤프 생성하기]
- 프로세스에 오류가 발생하여 Crash될 때 자동으로 덤프를 생성하는 방법입니다.
- Crash가 발생하기 전에 미리 설정해놓아야 합니다.
[방법1] procdump를 이용하는 방법
- 다음의 위치에서 procdump.exe를 다운로드받아 임의의 위치에 압축해제합니다. (예 : C:\temp )
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/procdump
- 관리자 권한으로 커맨드 쉘(cmd.exe)을 실행하여 다음의 명령을 실행합니다. (폴더 경로를 생략하는 경우 procdump.exe가 존재하는 위치에 생성됩니다.
procdump.exe -ma -i [덤프파일 생성할 폴더경로]
- 이제 시스템에서 어떤 프로세스든 비정상 종료하게 되면 메모리덤프 파일이 생성됩니다.
- 메모리덤프 설정을 해제하려면 다음과 같이 명령을 입력하면 됩니다.
procdump.exe -u
[방법2] WER (Windows Error Reporting)을 이용하는 방법
- Vista 이후부터 윈도우즈에서 실행중인 프로세스가 오류를 일으켜 Crash가 발생하면 메모리덤프를 생성하고 Microsoft로 전송하는 기능이 생겼습니다.
- 기본설정의 경우 Microsoft로 전송된 메모리덤프는 삭제되는데, 다음의 레지스트리 위치에 키를 생성하고 값을 설정하면 메모리덤프를 로컬에 남길 수 있습니다.
키 : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps
값이름 : DumpFolder
Type : REG_EXPANDSZ
값 : C:\temp\dump
값이름 : DumpType
Type : REG_DWORD
값 : 2

- 다음의 링크를 참조하시기 바랍니다.
[실행중인 프로세스의 메모리덤프 생성]
- 오류 없이 실행중인 프로세스의 메모리덤프를 생성하는 방법입니다.
- 주로 Hang, DeadLock, CPU과점유 등의 이슈가 발생한 프로세스의 원인을 분석할 때 필요합니다.
[방법1] 작업관리자를 이용하는 방법
1. 다음 스크린샷을 참고하시기 바랍니다.
2. 메모리덤프는 %temp% 폴더에 생깁니다. (시작 > 실행 > 명령창에 %temp% 를 명령하고 엔터치면 바로 이동이 가능합니다.)
[방법2] procdump 를 이용하는 방법
1. 별도의 실행파일을 다운로드받아야 한다는 번거로움이 있지만, 스크립트 등을 이용해 자동화할 수 있고 'CPU 80% 이상 점유하는 경우에 덤프 생성' 등 다양한 기능을 사용할 수 있습니다. (procdump /? 참조)
2. 관리자 권한 커맨드 쉘에서 다음과 같이 입력하면 됩니다.
procdump.exe notepad.exe (프로세스 이름으로 덤프 : 매치되는 프로세스가 1개인 경우에 한함)
procdump.exe 12776 (프로세스ID)
