Beta: initscripts and tuned-profiles-cloudlinux packages for CloudLinux OS 6/7/8 updated

Written by Inessa Atmachian | May 12, 2021 1:49:39 PM

New updated initscripts and tuned-profiles-cloudlinux packages for CloudLinux OS 6/7/8 are now available for download from our updates-testing repository.

Important note.
Since that release, we enable kdump (crashkernel=auto kernel boot parameter) on servers by default if the server RAM is more or equals to 16GB.
It's done to react to kernel crashes faster and more effectively. Also, this is needed for a new Sentry mechanism that allows us to get basic information about kernel crashes.
It doesn't send us any sensitive data and also controls the number of dumps on servers to avoid overusing disk space.
This update needs a reboot to be fully applied.
