Are you assigning static MACS to these guests in the vif [] container?
This could be router re-arp lag wreaking havoc on NFS.

I tried it with and without a static guest MAC.

The result is the same, because a xen-generated MAC only changes at creation time, not at migration time. So the switch "sees" one MAC that is moved to another switch port.

Dominik
