adclient.dumpcore

This configuration parameter specifies whether the agent should be allowed to create a core dump file, which is a snapshot of working memory when the system stops working unexpectedly.

In most cases, you set this configuration parameter using group policy (Configure Dump Core Setting). You can, however, set it manually in the configuration file if you are not using group policy or want to temporarily override group policy.

The value you set for this parameter overrides the default ulimit setting. The parameter value must be one of the following valid options:

  • never:The agent never creates a core dump file.

  • once: If the core dump location is at /var/centrifydc, the agent creates a core dump file only if there isn't already one in that directory. If the core dump location has been set to another location by the administrator, this setting operates the same as the always setting.

    For Linux systems that use systemd-coredump, the core dump location is at /var/lib/systemd/coredump/; for those systems, the once setting operates the same as the always setting. However, by default, these systems are configured to remove core dump files that are older than a specified period. For more information please see your systemd documentation.

  • always: The agent creates a core dump file for every crash.

For example:

adclient.dumpcore: never
