Doc Text:
.`kdump` RHEL System Role updates The `kdump` RHEL System Role has been updated to a newer version, which brings the following notable enhancements: * After installing `kexec-tools`, the utility suite no longer generates the `/etc/sysconfig/kdump` file because you do not need to manage this file anymore. * The role supports the `auto_reset_crashkernel` and `dracut_args` variables. For more details, see resources in the `/usr/share/doc/rhel-system-roles/kdump/` directory.

Description Rich Megginson 2023-05-30 16:19:43 UTC
Support auto_reset_crashkernel on RHEL9 and later.  Use grubby to update crashkernel on older releases.  /etc/sysconfig/kdump is not used anymore, only /etc/kdump.conf is used to configure kdump.
