I'm trying to change the Linux core-dump location to a different directory using the abrtd configuration

(normally it is going to the location core,but according to my research, if you enable abrtd, that will overwrite the default location.)

cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
/var/tmp/core-%e-%p-%t

abrtd.conf dump location looks like this

 DumpLocation = /data/kdump/abrt/FQDN    (this is a nfs mount)

Why my application core-dumps are not going to the /data/kdump/abrt/FQDN rather /var/tmp location

Am i missing any configuration directive ?

Do you have SElinux enabled? Is `abrtd` service enabled and running? – 13dimitar Apr 10 '17 at 07:38
Nope it is disabled. – Tharanga Abeyseela Apr 10 '17 at 07:43
Abrtd is running but selinux is disabled – Tharanga Abeyseela Apr 10 '17 at 07:44
The next thing is if `/data/kdump/abrt/FQDN` is writable for `abrtd`? – 13dimitar Apr 10 '17 at 07:47
Yes, it has correct permissions. – Tharanga Abeyseela Apr 10 '17 at 07:48
