I can not think out why it will delete them if user/customer intend to
capture and save them vmcore there.


Me neither. vmcore should be stored for further kernel debugging.

From kdump side of view nothing changes. It really writes the vmcore to /var/crash.

The "disappearing" happens after reboot, when abrt-vmcore service processes it. The vmcore itself is not deleted, but moved to /var/spool/abrt/vmcore-{whatever}/vmcore so that it can be processed like any other ABRT problem. You can still access it there, nothing is lost. In addition, ABRT provides tools to automatically install appropriate kernel debuginfo, extract the oops message and report it to Bugzilla.

If you still want the old behavior, you can simply disable the abrt-vmcore service and ABRT will not touch the vmcore at all.
