Topic

An update for kexec-tools is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

Description

The kexec-tools packages contain the /sbin/kexec binary and utilities that
together form the user-space component of the kernel's kexec feature. The
/sbin/kexec binary facilitates a new kernel to boot using the kernel's
kexec feature either on a normal or a panic reboot. The kexec fastboot
mechanism allows booting a Linux kernel from the context of an already
running kernel.

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

kdump initrd generation fails if /boot not writable (BZ#1976252)

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
