Hi,

well Nagios informed me today that the root partition of my Heartbeat 
Cluster is getting full. After a short investigation I found out that 
this directory has over 2 GB of size:

/var/lib/heartbeat/cores/root/

Over 250 of those files were in there:

-rw-------  1 root   root   8228864 Nov 16 11:08 core.8251

Heartbeat runs fine and stable though. I know that one of the two 
Ethernet Interfaces I use for hb (eth1 and eth3) crashes a lot due to a 
driver error (problem with SUN / NVIDIA and RedHat, no fix yet) and I 
suppose that's why there is a core dump - because Heartbeat knows that 
the link is down.
Other then that I don't think that anything is wrong.

Also those core dumps happen only on the active node in our two-node 
cluster. None are on the passive node.

Can I stop Heartbeat from creating those?

Thanks in advance,
Tobi
