[Fedora-xen] FC6/Xen crash -- isolated to rsnapshot job
I''ve isolated my FC6/xen crashing problems to cron backup jobs that
were
running in my dom0. I have moved the jobs into a domU and now observe the
crashing behavior in the domU. At least the entire environment doesn''t
come down when it''s in a domU.
In my crontab, I have a series of rsnapshot backup jobs to backup a
handful of windows and linux servers. For windows machines, the script
mounts a share on the windows machine using CIFS (samba). It seems only
the Windows backup jobs crash the machine and then only crash when two are
scheduled to start at exactly the same time.
I can replicate the problem by running the crontab command from the
command line. If I run the commands one at a time, no crash. If I start
them both back to back, the crash occurs within 30 seconds or so.
Under FC4, these scripts/backup jobs worked fine for almost a year without
intervention. I''ve read there have been a host of problems with CIFS in
FC6, but I thought they had been resolved. As a workaround, I can change
the job schedule for now, but something is still broken in the kernel,
samba or both.
Here''s a trace:
list_del corruption. prev->next should be c2f5c640, but was c2f50080
