Technically I have some clients in VMware guests, but it's not like
they're particularly loaded or anything. The VM becomes completely hung;
not even a panic message or anything on the console? If you can get
vmware to send it an alt-sysrq-t or alt-sysrq-w, does it not print
anything?
Can you run cmdebug from another machine, pointed to the server that's
hanging?

I will try cmdebug the next time it hangs. When this happens I can ssh into the machine but a graceful restart is impossible because it will not umount /afs Also if I try to ls /afs that will hang because there is nothing there anymore. This is a web based front end server running UofM's Mfiles app and apache modwaklog.
This gives users access to their home AFS volumes via a web browser.
When it wedges again I will see if I can get apache to shut down and then try a restart of the AFS client.
