random crash

Hello,
I'm using the following configuration on 8 different servers:

xen 4.1.2 from opensuse 12.1 with Kernel 3.1.10-1.9-xen

AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1075T 8GB ram

Dom0 : 1GB memory and 2 vcpus on core 0
(via boot option dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2)
DomU :
1 PV guest (opensuse12.1) 1GB memory 2 vcpus on core 1 to 5
1 PV guest (opensuse12.1) 1GB memory 3 vcpus on core 1 to 5
1 HVM guest with gplpv drivers(XP sp3) 1GB memory 1 vcpus on core 1 to 5


Also I'm using /usr/sbin/xm sched-credit -d Domain-0 -w 512 and
/usr/sbin/xenpm set-max-cstate 0 for handeling a bug with AMD family 16
processors


I've experienced server crash on all of my 8 servers. The time between
crashes is quite long (5-6 days) most of time it occures at night time when
the servers are not suppose to be overload.

I don't find anything in the logs so I don't really know how to track down
this issue.

Any idea / advice would be appreciate.

Thanks.

It seems like you are using both hypervisor and kernel supplied by the
distro. I would recommend reporting to the distro in the first instance
since they'll have much better insight into what the known bugs and
issues etc are for their binaries.

"noreboot" on the hypervisor command line and/or serial console might
help you get the logs they will no doubt ask you for.
