Dear Ubuntu Users/SMEs,



Wish to find out how I can capture a kernel dump file when the VM running on Ubuntu 16.04 crashed/hanged. Below is what i had done so far. Thanks for your help.




  1. I had install linux-crashdump on the VM

  2. Edited /etc/default/kdump-tools by including the following line:USE_KDUMP=1
    enter image description here

  3. The VM had crashed/hanged frequently but failed to obtain any dump file from
    /var/crash folder after I had to restart the VM through vCenter to access
    into the VM's folder via putty.

  4. The only time i can successfully retrieve a kernel dump file is when i
    simulate a kernel panic. Please refer to the attached image.


Thanks.
Regards.
