How do I stop .mdmp files from being created

Question

I have an instance of Solr, hosted with Tomcat that recently started creating minidump files. There are no errors in any of logs, and Solr continues to work with out a hitch.

Answer 1

This article has decent information on both Linux and Windows JVM dump files. Have yet to test it myself on my current version of Java 7....

From that site:

Disabling Text dump Files

If you suspect problems with the creation of text dump files you can turn off the text dump file by using the option: -XXnoJrDump.

Disabling the Binary Crash Files

You can turn off the binary crash file by using the option: -XXdumpSize:none.
