How to enable or disable dumping

If you use the command line to manage the application, you can enable or disable dumping in the kfl.ini configuration file.

The maximum number of dump files is limited.

Depending on the operating system settings, user dump files may not be created. Make sure that the system kernel is configured using sysctl kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=0.

Enabling or disabling dumping on the command line

To enable or disable dumping in the kfl.ini configuration file, do as follows:

  1. Stop the Kaspersky application.
  2. Open the /var/opt/kaspersky/kfl/common/kfl.ini file for editing.
  3. Under [General], set the parameter value:
    • CoreDumps=yes: enable dumping in case of a failure.
    • CoreDumps=no: disable dumping.
  4. If you want to change the default directory where dump files are saved, specify the path to the directory in the CoreDumpsPath option.
  5. Start the Kaspersky application.
