I''m running xen and had installed winXP; I''m using last gplpv drivers version. After connect to hvm from a remote desktop machine using VNC, the domU goes to blocked state and I lost the remote connection. If I go to the xen server and did a few clicks on the sdl window, the domU backs to r state. Using sdl=0 and vnc=1 same happens, but I can''t connect again once the domU is in blocked state. How can I fix this? regards, -- edu gargiulo _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
What do you have for ACPI and APIC in your domU configuration?>>> "edu gargiulo" <egargiulo+lists@gmail.com> 2008/11/24 19:19 >>>I''m running xen and had installed winXP; I''m using last gplpv drivers version.

[Xen-users] HVM domU Windows gets blocked for extended time
OpenSuse 10.3 dom0 running Xen 3.0. Have Windows XP and Windows 2003 domU guests. Sporadically, the Windows guest is blocked (no mouse movement, keyboard response) sometimes for 30-45 seconds. Then, the domU comes alive and catches up with keystrokes that were in the buffer. The client workstations are thinstation (linux based terminals that run rdesktop to Windows 2003). Since the server is a 8G RAM, Quad-core Intel, I tried pinning dom0 to CPU0, domU Windows 2003 to CPU1 and CPU2, and domU Windows XP to CPU3. No real change in outcome. I have also tried using the sched-credit adjustments for weight on the domU guests. Currently, these guests are using the qemu driver for hard drive. Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem? Would going to the SEDF scheduler be more appropriate? Could this be a network issue ? Xen has worked great for this environment except for the sporadic blocking.
