Crash dump initialization failed!

Resolution

Errors related to volmgr are output when a kernel dump is generated.
For some reason BSOD (blue screen) occurred and Windows stopped. At that time I tried to generate a crash dump, which may have failed. Therefore, this error is not directly related to the cause of Windows shutting down, so it should not be noticed by anyone other than the person who analyzes the crash dump.

If you need to generate a crash dump, please check the following points.

【conditions】
-Minimum memory dump (256 KB): 1 MB
-Kernel memory dump: It depends on the virtual memory usage of the kernel.
・Complete memory dump: RAM capacity + 257 MB *

The page file size can be checked with the following command.


C:\> powershell Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_PageFileSetting



The amount of physical memory can be checked with the following command. The following is for 16G.


C:\>wmic OS get TotalVisibleMemorySize /value
TotalVisibleMemorySize=16658596



The page file size can be checked with the following command.


C:\> powershell Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_PageFileSetting

BSOD (blue screen) occurred due to a fatal error on Windows, but crash dump generation failed.
There are various possible causes, but this error occurs when the page file is not set. If nothing is displayed by the following command, the page file has not been set and you need to set a new one.



PS C:\> Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_PageFileSetting
PS C:\>



If it is set, the following screen will be displayed.



PS C:\> Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_PageFileSetting

MaximumSize Name            Caption
----------- ----            -------
       2048 c:\pagefile.sys c:\ 'pagefile.sys'
