suddenly getting strange allert

New alerts:

• Core files for the following executables were found: /usr/bin/python3.9 (Sun Apr 3 10:44:58 2022). Please create a ticket at https://jira.ixsystems.com/ and attach the relevant core files along with a system debug. Once the core files have been archived and attached to the ticket, they may be removed by running the following command in shell: 'rm /var/db/system/cores/*'.

Any idea what could be the cause?

Try doing exactly what the message says.
TN has encountered an internal error, don't worry about it. If you don't want to log a ticket just remove the core files as per the message. If it keeps happenning then its time to worry (a little bit).

IX use the dump file, and core files to debug what happened and fix future versions of TN

I removed core files, got same alert few hours later...

Then post a JIra ticket as per the message. The core files don't do any harm - its just that the message won't go away until they stop coming back. I suggest when you post the ticket you also include a dump file as they normally ask for one
