A correction... You need to do "echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq" to enable AltSysRq before 
doing "echo c >/proc/sysrq-trigger".  AltSysRq is disabled by default.

/proc/sysrq-trigger is not controlled by /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
unless some $distro modified that.

You're correct, my mistake.  /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq controls the AltSysRq key 
sequences, but not /proc/sysrq-trigger.  I thought it controlled both.

Hi,

I want to install Kexec/Kdump features in my system.

I am very much new to system related things, and also system programming.

Can anybody suggest me which is the latest version of this tool and how can I install, configure, and test for a system panic using Kexec/Kdump?

Thanx

Shan

Here is a quick HOWTO for SLES10

1) Install kexectools and kernelkdump rpms.
2) Add to kernel command line:

(use yast or edit /boot/grub/menu.1st)
3) Verify configuration file: /etc/sysconfig/kdump.
4) Run β€œ/sbin/chkconfig kdump on”
5) Reboot
6) Test!! # echo c > /proc/sysrqtrigger
