Hi. We are running xen-3.0-testing. We use loop back mounted file
systems. The server we are running restarts itself/crashes. This seems
to happen around setting up loop back devices. (>63 loop back devices
seems to trigger a crash, but we have seen then with fewer devices
mounted as well).
We have swapped all hardware (bar the disks) to a new server. Same
issue. I see no disk errors in the logs.
Does this problem ring any bells for anyone? Else what sort of
information can we provide that would assist someone in tracking down a
potential bug/problem? Some random info/log snippets follow.
We''ll be trying out xen3-unstable/3.0.1 shortly.
Regards, Peter
