cat /sys/power/state
cat /sys/power/disk
The first should include 'disk' and the second should say enabled or
some such. Note that hibernation is probably not supported by the
CentOS kernel if this is on a UEFI computer with Secure Boot enabled
(it's not supported by Fedora kernels) as it's a possible vector to
defeat the point of Secure Boot.
systemd does check to see if there's enough unused swap to fit
Active(anon) mem into for hibernation, and if not then hibernation
won't be possible.
And yet another thing is that it's possible the initramfs isn't using
resume=<hibernationimagedevice> which is currently a problem on
Fedora. So you might need to add this to the grub.cfg on the kernel
command line, something like resume=/dev/VG/swap or wherever it is. If
it's a /dev/sdXY, i.e. on a regular partition, then use UUID.
