[Crash-utility] Re: crashdc : automatic data collection for new vmcores in text format

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Mike, Mike Snitzer a écrit : Interesting comment and I agree that those should fit in configuration files. I will also do my best to keep the run-*.sh scripts exempt from configuration specific information. Actually, those scripts should not be in /usr/bin at all. I would prefer to have them somewhere like in /var/crash/scripts (/var/log/dump/scripts in SLES10). Matter of fact, those run-*.sh scripts are there to deal with things like : - In the kexec kernel, the namelist is /boot/vmlinux{version} in RHEL and /root/boot/vmlinux{version} in SLES11 which mounts the root FS under /root in the initrd realm. - SLES needs to know where to find the .debug file which is part of the debuginfo RPM. RHEL doesn't need that - Differences in implementation of kdump post script mechanisms. They're different everywhere (RHEL5, SLES10 and SLES11). I don't want the user to have to bother with that. They should only have to add one line to the /etc/kdump.conf|/etc/sysconfig/kdump file to have this working. So thanks for your comments : they come in early enough in the development so I can change things around easily.
