Chapter 16. Tools Overview

There are several tools that can be helpful in examining the internals of the kernel and getting a better idea of what is going on. Some can also be used to modify parameters in the in-memory kernel image or in the kernel executable on disk.

When using any tool that can modify data, extreme caution must be exercised. It is possible to cause serious data corruption and render your system unbootable if the tools are misused. Hewlett-Packard support generally does not cover problems caused by the misuse of these tools.
