Hi All

I have SLES11SP2 configured and running successfully.  
Recently i tried to panic the system. configure below parameters.

(Linux)(sys02) ~{67} sysctl -a| grep kernel.panic  
kernel.panic = 30  
kernel.panic\_on\_oops = 1  
kernel.panic\_on\_unrecovered\_nmi = 0  
kernel.panic\_on\_io\_nmi = 0

Fired the below command to panic system  
(Linux)(sys02) ~{68} echo c \> /proc/sysrq-trigger

After the panic the machine didn’t come up…!! Any known issues or anything needs to be checked from configuration side…???  
Tried the same thing on SLES11SP1 , it worked as expected.  
Help is appreciated
