Can kdump be used on these to capture dumps? I'm assuming SLES 10 SP4 is too old (?) On http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/linux390/kernel-3.2.html I read: "Using kdump also requires s390-tools 1.17 and kexec-tools with s390 kdump support." On a vanilla SLES 11 SP2 system, I see: # cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (s390x) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL = 2 # rpm -qa | grep s390-tools s390-tools-1.15.0-0.101.1 I also see a kexec-tools 2.0.0 RPM is available to install. So it seems vanilla SLES 11 SP2 system would not have the necessary level of s390-tools. So is there a 1.17 version of the RPM available for SLES 11 SP2? Thanks.
