Hi, A production machine with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.11 (Tikanga) kernel 2.6.18-431.el5 crashed. I received vmcore, Since I dont have access to machine, and I need to open the vmcore to analyze the dump, I have downloaded CentOS 5.11, since centos 5.11 is EOL, I downloaded the 2.6.18-431.el5 kernel manually, with debuginfo and debuginfo-common and installed them, so far - seems ok. I am trying to get call stack of the dump time, i get error: [root@centos511test kernel]# crash vmcore /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux crash 5.1.8-3.el5.centos Copyright (C) 2002-2011 Red Hat, Inc.
