Description Jiri Belka 2024-04-22 13:20:56 UTC 
Starting the virtual machine host:

https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP5/html/SLES-all/cha-xen-vhost.html#sec-xen-vhost-start

'Note: Xen and Kdump' is confusing as it reads:

"it is necessary to add the parameter crashkernel=size to the kernel line instead of using the line with the other boot parameters."

'kernel line'? In fact, it is 'GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT'. That is, it is passed to Xen hypervisor.

See https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/4.17-testing/misc/kexec_and_kdump.txt .
