Re: [Crash-utility] Need help to get crash to work on kdump geneatedvmcore

Hi,I have been working on back-porting kexec/kdump functionality from 2.6.13 vanilla kernel to RHEL4, Update 2 kernel (version 2.6.9-22).As part of that, when I try to invoke "crash" on a vmcore generated, I get the following error in "crash" tool:[root crash-4.0-2.23]# ./crash /boot/System.map-2.6.9-kdump-1 /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9-kdump-1/linux- 2.6.9/vmlinux /root/vmcore crash 4.0-2.23 Copyright (C) 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 Red Hat, Inc.

Same result.- Should I be re-building crash as part of the back-port?- Is crash capable of handing vmcore's generated by kdump?- Can someone suggest how I can make progress to get crash to work for this?Thanks,- Kishore ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
