How can I create a kernel dump of a HLK IFS Test?

Hi,

I’m running my SFO minifilter driver under Windows 2016 using the HLK IFS kit but for some yet-unknown operations, the driver crash or hangs the container.

Should I attach the kernel debugger to the host to create a dump or is there another method to create it?

Regards,
Mauro.

Hooking up WinDbg would give you the easiest way to diagnose the problem
but you can configure the system to create a crash dump. There is
information on this here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/969028

Hi Peter, thanks.

Today also learned I can connect to the vm using Hyper-V Manager and attach windbg doing the setup as a normal VM (though there was not easy with the IFS configuration)

Regards.
