Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHCO_20099

Symptoms:
	PHCO_20099:
	System reboots if there is not enough swap space to save
	the core dump image.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_20099:
	Savecore(1M) returns an exit code of 3 indicating that there
	is not enough swap space to save the core image. Rc.d
	interpretes an exit status of 3 as requesting a system
	reboot, so the system is rebooted.

	Resolution:
	Savecore script remaps the savecore(1M) exit status of 3 to
	1, so the system will not be rebooted.
