       This section covers two common means of configuring the <systemitem class="service">kdump</systemitem> service: using the <application>Kernel Dump Configuration</application> graphical utility, and doing so manually on the command line. It also describes how to test the configuration to verify that everything works as expected.

+      <para>
+        When the system boots for the first time, the <application>firstboot</application> application is launched to guide a user through the initial configuration of the freshly installed system. To configure <systemitem class="service">kdump</systemitem>, navigate to the <guilabel>Kdump</guilabel> section, and follow the instructions below.

+        <para>
+          Unless the system has enough memory, this option will not be available. For the information on minimum memory requirements, refer to the <citetitle pubwork="section">Required minimums</citetitle> section of the <ulink url="http://www.redhat.com/rhel/compare/"><citetitle pubwork="webpage">Red Hat Enterprise Linux</citetitle> comparison chart</ulink>. Note that when the <systemitem class="service">kdump</systemitem> crash recovery is enabled, the minimum memory requirements increase by the amount of memory reserved for it. This value is determined by a user, and defaults to 128 MB.
