CentOS - Nov 2009 - kernel error

Hi,

 

yesterday there was obviously a problem in one virtual server. 

 

Host centos 

uname -rm: 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 x86_64

 

Guest: centos

uname -rm: 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5 x86_64

 

Vmware server : VMware-server-2.0.1-156745.x86_64.rpm

 

Logwatch in guest:

 --------------------- Kernel Begin ------------------------ 

 

 WARNING:  Kernel Errors Present

     [<ffffffff8005dde9>] error_exit+0x0/0x84 ...:  3 Time(s)

 

 ---------------------- Kernel End ------------------------- 

 

Any ideas? Hardware problem? How can I check hardware?

 

 

 

The only message I found is from mysqld:

Number of processes running now: 0

091111 12:29:05  mysqld restarted

091111 12:29:07  InnoDB: Database was not shut down normally!

What problem? did the guest crash? did it reboot? What happened?

Have you checked the vmware logs?(in the same directory as the
guest data files)

Check 'dmesg' on the host for any hints of what is going on?

Check the logs on the host?

Any other guest VMs on the same host? Any of them experience
anything? Check their logs during the same time frame that
the one guest had issues for signs of problems?
