I've started experiencing some weird issues with my Xen machine at home.
It has been very stable until a few weeks ago, but it only ran an
OpenSolaris PV system other than the Ubuntu Dom0. The build of
OpenSolaris was relatively old, nv79.
So crazy me did two things not too far apart from one another. First
was I manually P2V'd the only Windows box in the house in an attempt to
reduce power consumption for a computer that was always on but rarely
used. That went smooth. That HVM now runs 24/7 in case my wife needs it.
The second thing I did was an in-place upgrade of my OpenSolaris box
which has my ZFS pool on it. I also switched from Samba to the Solaris
CIFS Service, but I doubt that has anything to do with this.
I should have kept better records, but that doesn't matter now. At some
point, the Dom0 became unresponsive over the network. A trip to the
basement showed the computer unresponsive to input. I powered off and
rebooted, it worked. A week or two later, same thing. Then last night,
it did it again. I gave up and went to bed and when I woke up, I
noticed I had new mail on my phone (mail is received on my Dom0). I
ssh'd in and it was up. Only, it was June 9th, 2038 with an uptime of
19499 days(I took a screenshot for bragging purposes =p). This itself
was wrong because it would have been the year 2062 by those numbers.
The output of 'xm list' showed my VM's running but none were reachable.
This lasted for only an hour or so before it again was unresponsive
and never came back.
I can't find any logs showing what caused it, but here are some
interesting things. If you have any idea why this may be happening,
please respond. I'm just hoping its not hardware.

I also get the following several times a day for one of my other Linux
HVM's which i also recently added. Maybe this is a problem...

The same 'calculon' VM is showing numerous "Time offset" errers in the
