filesystem. See :ref:`resizing-filesystems-on-a-host` for more information
about adjusting it's size.
The *log* (``/var/log``) filesystem size is defaulted for standard platform
operation. If there is an expected usage increase due to the application core
dump files, it should be increased proportionally to the core dump size and the
expected number of core dumps that need to be retained. The core dump storage
limits can be explicitly configured using the system ``max_use`` parameter
settings that aligns to the core dump storage and retention requirements.
For example:
Filesystem Setting:
``8G (default) + 10G (core dump size x retention count - 5G x 2) = 18G``
Core Dump Setting:
``max_use = 10G (core dump size x retention count - 5G x 2)``

When you configure a parameter, it will be replicated to the ``coredump.conf`` file of all
existing nodes (controllers, workers, storages).
