.SH NAME
mkdumprd \- creates initial ramdisk images for kdump crash recovery
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBmkdumprd\fR [OPTION]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmkdumprd\fR creates an initial ram file system for use in conjunction with
the booting of a kernel within the kdump framework for crash recovery.
\fBmkdumprds\fR purpose is to create an initial ram filesystem capable of copying
the crashed systems vmcore image to a location specified in \fI/etc/kdump.conf
\fBmkdumprd\fR interrogates the running system to understand what modules need to
be loaded in the initramfs (based on configuration retrieved from
\fI/etc/kdump.conf)\fR
\fBmkdumprd\fR add a new \fBdracut\fR module 99kdumpbase and use \fBdracut\fR
utility to generate the initramfs.
\fBmkdumprd\fR was not intended for casual use outside of the service
initialization script for the kdump utility, and should not be run manually. If
you require a custom kdump initramfs image, it is suggested that you use the
kdump service infrastructure to create one, and then manually unpack, modify and
repack the image.
