Hello @fborges555

 

Yes , you can remove these core files from /storage/core , however there are few things to consider :

 

1) core.lwiod indicates a crash dump from likewise which is used for VCSA to AD communication.
2) Based on the timestamps , check if these are old or newly generated.
3) If these are new , there is definitely a problem with the likewise daemon , which needs to be addressed.
4) Check the messages file under /var/log/vmware for any details.

Yes, you can remove the older core files.

Can I know what is the vCenter server version?
