Hi Louis,
Thanks for the response (and I fully agree and went ahead after I was
convinced.)
My official writeup settled it this way (which works for even the smallest
instance on Azure):
WAS:
74 # add crashkernel option if we have the required tools
75 if [ -x "/usr/bin/makedumpfile" ] && [ -x "/sbin/kexec" ]; then
76 GRUB_CMDLINE_EXTRA="$GRUB_CMDLINE_EXTRA
crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M"
IS:
74 # add crashkernel option if we have the required tools
75 if [ -x "/usr/bin/makedumpfile" ] && [ -x "/sbin/kexec" ]; then
76 GRUB_CMDLINE_EXTRA="$GRUB_CMDLINE_EXTRA
crashkernel=384M-700M:64M,700M-:128M"
The smallest image on Azure is 768M.
