Why is kernel crash dump capture over NFS failing with RHEL6.4-based RHEV-H?
Issue
- Failure to capture a vmcore of RHEV-H using NFS
- I'm trying to get kerneldumps to NFS working, when I panic the system, it's telling it's generating a coredump, but none is created:
user@head02:/Volume01/kdump$ ls -lha
total 6
drwxr-xr-x 2 36 36 2 Apr 12 12:05 .
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 24 Apr 12 11:02 ..
When I mount this directory myself on the RHEV-H system, I can write to it. I even changed the owner id to 36.
