RHEL5 (IPF)
When RHEL5 (IPF) is used with PRIMEQUEST, the dump function (kdump)
provided by the Linux distribution and the dump function (sadump) dedicated to
PRIMEQUEST can be used.

Business system
This section describes how to set up a dump environment. For dump-related
operations, see the PRIMEQUEST 500A/500/400 Series Reference Manual: Message/
Logs (C122-E004EN).
If a system failure occurs in the PRIMEQUEST, the user should notify the certified
service engineer of the failure as an incident. The certified service engineer, in turn,
will perform investigation based on the collected dump data. Before the dump data
required for this investigation can be collected, the initialization tasks listed below
must be executed.
The dump collection work differs for each type of Linux OS.
