By default, the Kernel Dump service (Kdump) is enabled and
configured for UEK R3 on x86-64 using the
crashkernel=auto setting, but must be
manually configured for UEK R2 on i386, which does not support
crashkernel=auto.
The following boot-time message indicates that Kdump needs to be configured.
kdump: No crashkernel parameter specified for running kernel
To prevent this message from being displayed, use the Kernel Dump Configuration GUI (system-config-kdump) to configure or disable Kdump. (Bug ID 16242031)
