[Xen-users] trouble with xenserver and xfs (soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s!)

[Sebastian Gosenheimer <s.gosenheimer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody,

i hope that i'm on the right mailing list. I'm having some trouble with 
xfs and xen. We are running the newest xenserver version with ha on dell 
servers and a dell equalogic.

I set up a fileserver (debian lenny 2.6.29-xs5.5.0.17) with one ext3 
partiton for the os and one xfs partition for the data. Two webserver 
are using this fileserver with nfs.

Now i run the second time into following problem when rsync was running 
for backup:

I have to force reboot to bring the vm back online. Are there any known 
problems with xfs and xen? Because i know from another deployment that 
they are having nearly the same issues with xfs. There are no problems 
with the ext3 filesystem.

Thank you for your help!
