Hello all: After doing some recent updates I''ve noticed that one previously stable domain is now crashing regularly. The dom0 is running 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5xen0 and the corresponding domU kernel on the virtuals. Dom0 hardware is an Athlon XP 2200 with 1G RAM. This occurs under moderately heavy network. The crashed domain is a fileserver image with a physical disk and was serving up a Solaris installation iso when it died. The DomU will not shutdown with "xm shutdown" or "xm destroy" and I need to kill -9 the "xend start" processes to force it down. This also prevents the Dom0 from rebooting. Ahh... And just noticed that I can''t "xm shutdown" two running VMs either. They both go to Zombie state.
