Name

kexec-bootloader - Load kexec kernel from bootloader configuration
Synopsis
--------
kexec-bootloader [-D]
Description
-----------
kexec-bootloader takes the default section of bootloader configuration and
loads that kernel, initrd with _kexec -l_ and the respective command line.
Under systemd kexec-bootloader may be invoked by kexec-load.service
(/usr/bin/systemctl kexec) to perform a kexec. To emulate previous SLE
configurable behaviour where kexec occurs automatically at system reboot
the systemd reboot target should be altered via
'ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/kexec.target /etc/systemd/system/reboot.target
Options
-------
*-h* | *--help*::
Shows a short usage message.
*-D* | *--debug*::
Prints debugging output.
Return Value
------------
The program returns *0* on success and *1* on failure.
Bugs
----
Please report bugs and enhancement requests at https://bugzilla.novell.com[].
