Problem: restoring virtual machine with kernel 2.6.32-34

[Michał 'Orr' Daszkowski]

Hi!

I'm not sure if this is good email address for this, but if not,
please forward this to proper person(s). :)

I have serious problem with virtual machines (xen domU) and kernel
2.6.32-34. After saving such guest (for example during shutdown) and
restoring it starts but seems to be frozen. Sometimes it's completely
frozen and sometimes only interactive commands are not working. It
means system daemons are working and I'm able to execute remote
commands as a parameter for ssh, but cannot log in using console or
ssh.

I'm sure that this problem is related to kernel 2.6.32-34, because it
happened after upgrade to this version. If I set guest to use
2.6.32-33 kernel, after save/restore all is OK.

My dom0 is Debian 6.0.2, xen 4.0.1-2 and guest machines are Ubuntu
10.04 LTS. All systems are x86_64.

If you need any additional information or want me to do some tests,
just tell me, because I want to know what is useful for you. :)

I hope that you can easily find the cause of my problems and give me
the solution or workaround, because this situation is really
uncomfortable for me. :(

Best regards,
