RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2010-05-11 10:33:02 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.
Comment 4 Radek Novacek 2010-05-14 15:04:19 UTC 
I'm not able to reproduce the bug with step from comment #1. But I reproduced similar issue when I manually changed command line options on Expert settings card. I changed from "crashkernel=192M" to "crashkernel=aa192M" and change focus to another widget, then the error appears in terminal (no crash). 

How should s-c-kdump react on that? Error message? Silently change that to some valid value? Something else?
Comment 5 Roman Rakus 2010-05-19 15:05:00 UTC 
Possible values are
1) auto
2) X@Y
3) X

where auto is string
X is numeric value with optional M suffix
Y is optional value with optional M suffix

I will add check for the above possibilities.
Comment 7 Roman Rakus 2010-05-19 19:04:38 UTC 
Should be fixed in system-config-kdump-2.0.2.1-14.el6
Comment 10 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-07-02 19:52:48 UTC 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Beta 2 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
