How about a link like https://hoststud.com/resources/how-to-disable-core-dumps-in-linux-centos-server.292/? Google will be your friend.

I can't remember but don't the core dumps always have a consistent file name? If they do, as an alternative approach, you can try dropping an event into /etc/clearsync.d/. In it you'll need something like:I don't know the rules around the file but I just copy other files from the same place as a template. This assumes the core dump is called core.*. This should remove each core dump within a second of it being created. If it takes a while to create a core dump you may need to increase the delay a bit to avoid a file lock.

Thanks for the help Nick, I had already tried the google approach and had already added the hoststud.com method but that did not work... so I was thinking there was something specific for clearos... I just tried your plugin but that does not seem to work either... do I need to restart a service to make the plugin work? / actually just editing my previous reply > I rebooted and one of the two seems to be working preventing the core dumps from root... Interestingly, I was able to load the latest kernel without emergency mode...

and the firewall status is not in panic anymore, the status is active exited....

I cannot access the webconfig - even after "systemctl restart webconfig" - "systemctl status webconfig" shows active running.

see this image for the firewall status, I see ibvpn which was previously uninstalled through the webconfig.... wondering if this is causing any issues?


Thanks.

Well, now it seems to be working again... thank you for all your help... I am going to pull all the files off the server then reinstall.

Best regards!
