At that time, following message appears in administrative console. System dump request was sent successfully to <serverName>. The output file for the operation is <generated dump file location>. If a piped program is specfied to Linux core_pattern is specified and changed dump generating location, null appears at <gemerated dump file location> of above message.

Set core to Linux core_pattern (instead of piped program).
