I have some daemon processes that crashes every now and then and I want to know how I can enable core dump generations.
I know that by default on linux ulimit for core dumps is zero so I need to set it to unlimited if I want to see core dumps for processes that I am running.
But what I want to do is to generate core dumps for daemon processes that are running under root account.
Can anyone advise me how to configure the system? Thank you in advance.

    I believe something like:

    ulimit -c unlimited

    … or some value will allow what you to create those dumps. Also, you may want to check out the following web pages for more details: how to enable core and Linux FAQ
