Re: /var/log/messages doesn't have crash info when kernel gets panic/oops/crash

Hi Neil,
Thanks for your quick reply.
What you have suggested is nice when we got/save crash dump (i.e vmcore)What if we failed to save/capture vmcore info or vmcore is corrupted etc. then we dont get any informationregarding the panic/crash/oops at anywhere?
 

Thanks and Regards
 Seetharam
