Re: [Xen-users] Lenny DomU crash!

[Simon Hobson <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm getting the same thing - DomU runs fine for weeks or months, but 
then our monitoring system tells us it's down. From the outside, it's 
'dead' - doesn't respond to pings or anything. From Dom0 we can 
connect to the console (xm console <guestname>) and get the last few 
pages of output - but there's nothing unusual logged (just a load of 
Shorewall log lines which is normal). The guest is absolutely dead to 
the console as well.
xentop reports that teh guest is taking 100% cpu.

All I can do is kill it and restart it.

Almost all my guests are Debian Lenny, installed with debbootstrap 
and then cloned. Some have never done it (yet !), others have done it 
two or three times over the last few months.
Dom0 runs 2.6.18-6-xen-686
Guests run 2.6.18-5-xen-vserver-686 or 2.6.18-6-xen-686 - both have 
guests that have never crashed, both have guests that have.
