[arm-allstar] :-( Core Dumps noted in supermon

[David McGough]

Matt,

Asterisk can "core dump" for a variety of reasons, the most obvious reason 
being dues to memory corruption bugs.

However, the bulk of core dumps that we're seeing these days are simply 
due to asterisk admin-commanded asterisk restarts (such as from admin menu 
option #13) or files being administratively changed, etc.

All the core dump files are located in the /var/lib/systemd/coredump/ 
folder. If you suspect you've got some type of system issues going on, 
I'll be glad to take a look at these files, so you can send them to me or 
place them in a location where I can retrieve them. DON'T publicly 
publish a web link. These core files can contain sensitive information, 
like your iax2 passwords.

If you don't suspect any system issues, just delete these files. They'll 
have names like:

core.asterisk.0.*

...And, keep an eye out for more core files showing up.

73, David KB4FXC
