Subject: [suse-sles-e] Lkcd save fails

I am following http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/15284.html to setup LKCD.

- lkcdutils is installed ( lkcdutils-4.2-193.57) on SLES 9 SP2
- lkcd config works ok. Here is my /etc/sysconfig/dump file
DUMP_ACTIVE="1"
 
DUMPDEV="/dev/vmdump"
DUMPDIR="/var/crash"
 
DUMP_LEVEL="8"
 
DUMP_COMPRESS="2"
 
DUMP_FLAGS="0x80000000"
 
DUMP_SAVE="1"
 
PANIC_TIMEOUT="5"
 
BOUNDS_LIMIT=10
 
KEXEC_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz
 
KEXEC_CMDLINE="root console=tty0"
 
TARGET_HOST=""
 
TARGET_PORT=6688
 
SOURCE_PORT=6688
 
ETH_ADDRESS=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
 
DUMP_MAX_CONCURRENT=4
 
NETDUMP_VERBOSE=no

- When I run /etc/init.d/boot.lkcd, it fails
myserver:/etc/init.d # ./boot.lkcd start

Error: could not save crash dump: lcrash returned with 1. Maybe there was no dump?
