[Crash-utility] Reasons why kdump isn't activated

[Chandan12 K]

First you need to figure out the reason of your system failure. If its 
complete power failure, then kexec wont be able to load a new kernel in 
current context. 
Secondly, is kexec properly configured in your system?

Hi,
what can be any reasons why kdump mechanism isn't triggered? My first
though is that it means a hardware failure, not a kernel problem.
