kump/etc/pre.d/* Not getting executed.

[arshad hussain]

Hello,

I am trying to run a custom script before the dump (ie
/etc/kdump/pre.d/* ) which I am unable to do.
I can say this, as the script is supposed to create a folder under
/var/crash and a file which it is not. It also does not generate the
vmcore file.

I am failing to understand what obvious step I am missing. Can someone
please help out.

While the "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" successfully reboots the
output is not what is expected.

Here is my setup for kdump/kexec.

Thanks!

-------Expected output-------
01. Under /var/crash we should be having a folder as "DBGMSG-<date>".
02. Under /var/crash we should be having a file as "test512".
03. vmcore file
04. dmesg file

-------current output-------
Nothing under /var/crash
