Hello, i was upgrading dom0 to centos 5.3 and the yum update does upgrade the kernel to 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5xen the xen version installed is: xen-3.0.3-80.el5_3.2 xen-libs-3.0.3-80.el5_3.2 kernel-xen-2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 after updating i starting to see this when running ''ps aux'' command: root 15666 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 02:39 0:00 [blkback.17.sda1] root 15667 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 02:39 0:00 [blkback.17.sda2] root 16270 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< 02:46 0:00 [blkback.18.sda1] root 16271 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?

S< 02:56 0:00 [blkback.20.sda2]google search doesn''t help much, some of the search result said that they have problem with the networking, however all the domU on my server seems to be working normal. what is blkback anyway? is this normal processes? if not how to fix it? thank you Best Regards, Markus Get your preferred Email name!
