You are a system administrator and you are working with Support. Support asked you to enable
kernel core dumps on the files. You are unsure if this has already been set. You run the
command chkconfig -list kdump. Does the screen capture tell you if kernel dumps are enabled on
this gateway?
A.
There is not enough information to determine if kernel core files will be generated.
B.
Yes kernel dump has been enabled and kernel files should be captured.
C.
Kdump has nothing to do with kernel core file generation.
D.
All values should be set to “on”. A kernel core dump will not be created.
Chkconfig command is used to setup, view, or change services that are configured to start automatically during the system startup. Chkconfig command can be used to activate and deactivate services.
In output chkconfig –list the following run levels are available:
0 – halt
1 – Single user mode
2 – Multiuser, without NFS
3 – Full multiuser mode
4 – unused
5 – X11
6 – reboot
In this case kdump is enabled and running in full multiuser mode.
