With Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, why can't my HP server with cciss partitions create a diskdump?

Updated -

When a HP server goes into a kernel panic, the diskdump will report the following message and can not create a vmcore file.

......
CPU#1 is executing diskdump
<3>cciss: blocks read do not match stired value
<3>cciss: blocks read do not match stired value
<3>disk_dump: No more dump device found
<6>disk_dump: diskdump failed, fall back to trying netdump.
