Re: problem of kexec

Hi Zheng, On Fri, Nov 24, 2017 at 7:10 AM, Zheng, Ruoqin <zhengrq.fnst(a)cn.fujitsu.com&gt; wrote: Hmm.. If this value is taken with the primary kernel boot'ed it would suggest that there was no memory reserved for the crashkernel. Usually this command should give an idea of the memory reserved for crashkernel (for e.g. 512M). So you will not be able to use the crashdump but can use the kexec -l and kexec -e combination. Thanks. This looks ok at the first glance. Could you please use the following command line to load the crashkernel rather than using the '-dtb' option to load the crashkernel: # kexec -l <path to Image or vmlinuz> --initrd=<path to initramfs> --reuse-cmdline for e.g. assuming the images are installed inside /boot, use: # kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline And then use: # kexec -e And share the results you get with the same.
