Description Sergei Petrosian 2021-12-07 10:53:15 UTC 
Description of problem:
Systems that have the kdump service disabled might not have memory reserved and loaded for crashkernel. Such system require enabling kdump and rebooting, hence the kdump_reboot_ok variable must be added to the kdump role

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
Run the role on the system with disabled kdump. I.e. the `/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size` file on the system contains `0`.


Actual results:
The role either fails or passes without errors 

Expected results:
The role passes and sets the `kdump_reboot_required` fact to indicate that reboot is required. Or passes with reboot if `kdump_reboot_ok: true` is set.
