Is there a way to configure multiple dumps?

Hi,

At present my memory dump gets overwritten each time system crashes. Is
there a way to configure so that successive
dumps are written with new names like memory.dmp.1 memory.dmp.2 etc?

Thanks,
-Praveen

Not really, you can do the rename yourself once you log in (if you get
that far)

A service can rename an existing dump file, however there is obviously a
window where you crash again before this can happen.
