what's

 ls -lZ /var/log/core/core.4944.1431000847.dump

? Do you something of relevant in audit.log?

ls -lZ /var/log/core/core.4944.1431000847.dump
-rw-------. root root system_u:object_r:virt_cache_t:s0 /var/log/core/core.4944.1431000847.dump

I see the below AVC in the audit.log but not very sure if this is relevant. copying the audit.log file to the link mentioned in comment 1.

type=AVC msg=audit(1431598677.313:1084): avc:  denied  { getattr } for  pid=18593 comm="glusterd" path="/dev/random" dev="devtmpfs" ino=1032 scontext=system_u:system_r:glusterd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:random_device_t:s0 tclass=chr_file

The AVCs are unrelated to the coredumps, but to /dev/random. They should be reported as glusterd bugs.

what is your `getenforce`?

do you see any mention of logrotate or the core dumps on audit.log?

--- Additional comment from RamaKasturi on 2015-05-14 07:58:16 EDT ---

getenforce

Permissive

I do not see any mention of logrotate or core dumps on audit.log

I'm quite convinced that this issue is a duplication of Bug 1265547. Therefore closing it as DUP, please re-open if I'm wrong. There are no steps for in the description that I can try to verify myself.
