Kernel core dumps may contain the full contents of system memory at the time of the crash. Kernel core dumps may consume a considerable amount of disk space and may result in denial of service by exhausting the available space on the target file system partition.
Parameter:
[yes/no]
Technical Mechanism:
Fix:If SUSE operating system kernel core dumps are not required, disable the "kdump" service with the following command:
> sudo systemctl disable kdump.service
If kernel core dumps are required, document the need with the ISSO.
