Hi,

This problem occurs on the system which has been set a high vm.min_free_kbytes value in the /etc/sysctl.conf. On those systems, kdump will fail. The workaround is set the value each time by running 'sysctl'. This isn't convenient. We'd like to have a solution that the value of vm.min_free_kbytes in production system's /etc/sysctl.con doesn't affect running of kdump.

Thanks.
