Created attachment 1135128 [details] test run log Description of problem: The rhcert tool is not able to verify kdump image.The rhcert tool is not able to find actual path of the vmlinux file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-certification-backend-2.0-20151117.el6.noarch redhat-certification-hardware-1.6.6-20150901.el6.noarch redhat-certification-information-1.6.6-20150901.el6.noarch kernel-debuginfo-2.6.32-573.8.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-debuginfo-common-x86_64-2.6.32-573.8.1.el6.x86_64 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install the rhcert tool on RHEL6.7 2.Install kernel-debuginfo and and kernel-debuginfo-common rpm 2.Run the Kdump local test 3.Check the result in /var/log/rhcert/run/x/... Actual results: The test script is not able to find the actual path of vmlinux file and hence not able to verify the vmcore file Expected results: The test should be able to identify the path of vmlinux file and be able to verify the vmcore file Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
You are going to need to install the matching kernel-debuginfo for the kernel the system has booted otherwise you get the crash error not being able to find vmlinux. Note that the installed version of kernel-debuginfo has a kernel version specific directory hence the error. # rpm -q kernel-debuginfo kernel-debuginfo-2.6.32-573.18.1.el6.x86_64 # pwd /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/2.6.32-573.18.1.el6.x86_64 # ls -l ... -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 135624055 Jan 6 13:09 vmlinux # rpm -q kernel-debuginfo kernel-debuginfo-2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64 # pwd /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64 # ls -l ... -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 135375691 Jul 1 2015 vmlinux
Working after trying the above work around.
Praveen, It is necessary that for the version of the kernel running on the system that will have the kdump test performed that a matching version of kernel-debuginfo be installed. There needs to be version parity between the two packages, kernel and kernel-debuginfo, for the test to work properly. Travis
