[Xen-users] xend hangs if out of memory

[Pim van Riezen <pi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good day,

we recently migrated to Xen4.0.1 on one of our clusters. It solves a lot of 
problem, but it also adds one. Whenever we try to xm create a guest that 
oversteps the total amount of memory, xend completely hangs itself up and stops 
responding to any rpc calls..

The last lines in xend.log are:

[2011-02-02 10:00:22 8199] DEBUG (balloon:172) Balloon: tmem relinquished -1 
KiB of 20100116 KiB requested.
[2011-02-02 10:00:22 8199] DEBUG (balloon:226) Balloon: 13454316 KiB free; 0 to 
scrub; need 33554432; retries: 115.
[2011-02-02 10:00:22 8199] DEBUG (balloon:226) Balloon: 13454316 KiB free; 0 to 
scrub; need 33554432; retries: 210.

is there a way to recover from this?

Cheers,
Pim van Riezen
