no, I had something happen to me some time ago and novell/suse checked with IBM and 
they had no current solution for the problem, They stated that IBM was working on the 
problem and they think its a defect in the QDIO Driver.

When troubleshooting this problem with Novell we found that the package that was 
causeing the 100% CPU spike was Samba client. Very strange, but when we removed it. 
everything was fine from then on out. We were able to duplicate it on another guest as 
well. very strange. 

Looks like IBM just realeased some kernel updates maybe their is a QDIO Driver fix for 
this issue.

Hi all,

Anybody seen the following conditions :-

o VM linux guest hangs. No response to ssh or at 3270 console. Pings
from other servers (external and internal) ok though (?)
o VM CPU @ 100%.
o No VM paging.
o VM guys say linux is "looping".

zSeries 800/SLES8 SP2

Would a linux guest memory issue cause this?
