Issue/Introduction

I am running the processes probe 4.64 and seeing a number of core dump files in the probe folder:

-rw------- 1 root root      65536 Jan  5 05:37 core_1609853834_processes_4317_11.dump
-rw------- 1 root root  302297088 Jan 16 03:05 core_1610795138_processes_17932_11.dump
-rw------- 1 root root 1293856768 Feb  1 16:55 core_1612227342_processes_3790_11.dump
-rw------- 1 root root   48840704 Feb 10 04:35 core_1612960544_processes_29674_11.dump
-rw------- 1 root root   35417042 Feb 17 12:25 core_1613593533_processes_13911_11.dump.gz

 

It is not clear what is causing this but the files are taking up an increasing amount of room.  Can this be prevented?

Environment

Release : 4.64

Component : UIM - PROCESSES

Resolution

Upgrading the processes probe to version 4.80 or higher should resolve this issue.
