KB42918: What is the "abrtd" process found in Redhat Enterprise Linux 6.x and how can it affect the MicroStrategy Intelligence Server 9.x

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
On RedHat systems starting with version 6.0, there has been,among other features, an additional service:
The Automatic Bug Reporting Tool, commonly abbreviated as ABRT, consists of the "abrtd" daemon and a number of system services and utilities to process, analyze, and report detected problems with running applications and services. The daemon runs silently in the background most of the time, and springs into action when an application crashes is detected. The daemon then collects the relevant problem data such as a core file (if it has been generated), the crashing application's command line parameters, and other data.
It has been noted that when an Intelligence Server crash occurs, that no core file is found.  In the Linux system log "/var/log/messages", the following entry can be seen:

CAUSE
On all UNIX systems, the default behaviour is that the core file is generated in the directory in which process is executed from.
The error referenced in the messages log shows that the core file was generated and moved to an output directory, set in the ABRT configuration.
 
This can be seen in the following line:

Feb 8 09:28:32 ESLP22732 abrt: saved core dump of pid 14256 
(/dw/WWDDWP02/appserv/MSTR9/MicroStrategy/install/IntelligenceServer/bin/
MSTRSvr.9.3.000.055) to /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2013-02-08-09:28:13-14256.new/
coredump (4225028096 bytes)

 
Additionally, the log also shows that the core file was deleted since it wasn't captured properly.  A common reason on why the core file wasn't captured, is due to insufficient disk space.
 
ACTION
If the ABRT is in operation and the Intelligence Server has crashed, the Linux System Administrator must be notified and system log checked for the location of the Intelligence Server core file.
