My understanding is that the kernel

On a SUSE system, a vmhalt event will never occur on a normal
shutdown. The SUSE halt/reboot script (/etc/init.d/halt) will execute
either a reboot or halt -p (halt with poweroff), which will
trigger the vmpoff action instead. Executing the halt or poweroff

Given that with the above vmhalt line any 'shutdown -h' command will
trigger a vmdump, I would not recommend this approach.
Dang! Thanks.
