Regarding the environment setting from X Window System or networks
such as telnet
Set up the dump environment at run level 3 wherever possible, without
using X Window System. If X Window System is used to set up the dump
environment, some console messages such as those related to a dump device
space shortage are not displayed on X Window System. Also when telnet or
ssh is used, some console messages may not be output. If circumstances
force you to use X Window System or telnet, use the dmesg command or /
var/log/messages to check the console messages.
