Hi Herbert,

   Thanks for the pomprt reply.  I have tried to put all the following
files with
some number (i.e. 2048 for example) to try out.

(BTW, the doc in ulimits section does not mention
supporting of ulimits on core though)

/etc/vserver<guestos>/rlimits/core
/etc/vserver<guestos>/rlimits/core.hard
/etc/vserver<guestos>/rlimits/core.soft

/etc/vserver<guestos>/ulimits/core
/etc/vserver<guestos>/ulimits/core.hard
/etc/vserver<guestos>/ulimits/core.soft

Then I do:
vserver guestos stop
vserver guestos start

I got the same error as "vc_set_rlmit: Unknow error 524) I assume I got this
from the rlimts/core setting.

Then I do:
vserver guestos enter
ulimit -c

(I still got 0 and not the value I set in the ulimits file ?)

Any idea ?

what I was trying to do is to use CLI for customer to setup
their default corefile size in that  Vserver during runtime.
The value can take effect after Vserver restart.

Thanks,

Jennifer

hmm, no, the idea of the vlimit (rlimit for an
entire guest) is kind of different from the ulimit
(rlimit per user/process) ... basically the vlimits
are limits for the accumulated resources used up
by a guest/context, which is somewhat hard to define
for things like the 'core dump file size'

what you probably want to set is the default core
dump size (ulimit) for that guest, which should not
be too hard to set either (not for the running guest
though, as it has to be inherited for all processes)

i.e. /etc/vservers/<guest-name>/ulimits
(http://linux-vserver.org/util-vserver:Documentation)

see http://linux-vserver.org/Resource_Limits for
details on which guest resources are accounted and
enforced ...

HTC,
Herbert
