      Description of problem:

      https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.18/html/support/troubleshooting#enabling-kdump
      https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-17663
      https://github.com/openshift/openshift-docs/blame/ca96b5774e045088c83d871c1944198e05bb519e/modules/troubleshooting-enabling-kdump.adoc#L41
      > If you have multipathing enabled on your primary disk, the dump target must be either an NFS or SSH server and you must exclude the multipath module from your `/etc/kdump.conf` configuration file.
      
      Is this admonition correct? the RHEL documentation does not mention this restriction. We've used the multipathing / dump target of disk successfully.
      
      Also, we might need to add a reference to Power /dev/pmem where it can write the kdump to persistent memory.
