Description Takao Indoh 2008-04-04 19:46:02 UTC
Description of problem:
The description about ssh/scp in kexec-kdump-howto.txt needs to be updated.
The following is a quote from it.

    Also, note that for technical reasons, makedumpfile cannot be used with
    ssh/scp or raw dumps.

The latest makedumpfile supports ssh/scp method, so this description is not
needed. An attached file fixes this.

kexec-tools-1.101-194.4.el5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Read /usr/share/doc/kexec-tools-1.102pre/kexec-kdump-howto.txt
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
There is a description that makedumpfile cannot be used with ssh/scp method.

Expected results:
This description is not needed.

Additional info:
There is a same problem in 5.2 SnapShot3(kexec-tools-1.102pre-16.el5)

Comment 3 Kevin Krafthefer 2008-05-22 16:08:40 UTC
This RFE has been reviewed during the RHEL RFE review
with Red Hat product management. This request has been *tentatively* approved
for inclusion
in the next update. This decision is not final and still pends further
technical review and scoping by Red Hat development engineering.

Comment 4 Neil Horman 2008-05-23 18:13:52 UTC
fixed in 1.102pre-22.el5
