Hello, I have this problem - I have installation of Xen and Centos 5 (all RPMs are from Centos repositories). I have several DomU virtual machines running on this machine. When I try to copy some bigger amount of data from another physical computer to Dom0/DomU on this machine, the network freezes. The link is still up, I can see that the connection really links on the switch, but nothing is received or sent to the network. I tried to stop all the DomUs, stop the network, unload the network drivers from memory and loading them again and starting the network, but the problem persists. Only reboot solves the problem. Sometimes the amount of data have to be around gigabytes (last time it was 10GB), sometimes 500MB is enough to stop the network... I also tried to change the NIC, but the behavior is the same. Btw. logs don't say anything :-/
Any idea ? Thank you very much ! Vladimir PS: this is the output of my lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8T800Pro Host Bridge 00:00.1 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
