RHEL6: kdump on a system with many LUNs never finishes, or shows "soft lockups"
Issue
kdump
on a system with many LUNs never finishes, or shows "soft lockups". On the main kernel, I was hitting soft lockups and had to limitudevchilds
and/orudevtimeout
to solve this, as described in udevd worker unexpectedly returned with status 0x0100.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6
- kdump
- many luns
