Content of /var/storage/cores

Hi all,

Following on from the issue encountered by many admins today in relation to the HTTP Proxy restarting (https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f/general-discussion/94763/info-141-http-proxy-not-running---restarted-notification-segfaults-in-kernel-log-since-this-morning), I was wondering if someone could clarify something for me.

I noticed in /var/storage/cores that there are several files, quite considerable in size, called postgres.XXXXX. These files are over a year old and I'm wondering how they may have come to be and is it OK for me to remove them completely.

Any recommendations/suggestions would be most welcome.

Best regards,

John P

  • Hi Zaphod,

    Many thanks for your input, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't getting rid of anything important.
