SAS 9.4M7 on Windows 2012R2
On our mid-tier server, the drive hosting the config area keeps filling up. It's difficult to tell what's the real culprit but there do seem to be a number of files in the Environment Manager agent area which are a significant size (roughly half a Gb each). They are named hs_err_pidnnnnn.mdmp, where nnnnn is a (generally) five-digit number, I'm guessing the PID of a process. A bit of Googling (other search engines are available!) suggests that these are dump files from JVMs which have crashed, although I'm not aware of this happening with the EV agent. Two questions:
1. How do I stop them appearing?
2. Am I OK to remove them?
Thanks.
