Use crash(8).

When you've discovered the internal state of the comatose guest what are you 
going to do with it?   Find out when it was fixed in the years since you 
updated and update to that version?   Add it to the list of rediscovered bugs?  
Wait to see if it happens again before you are pwned by one of the many, many 
security fixes since you last updated?

Hi
Thanks for the reply

We have seen the same guest VM freezing on vmware ESXi machine also ,


No wonder given that the guest remains 5 years out of date even when 
using a different hypervisor. Leaving aside that also the long-term 
kernel installed from ElRepo that you are using is also more then 4 
years out of date.


Please update the OS(es) to the current supported OS versions ( that is, 
7.6 / 6.10 ) and verify if the problems persist. But you've already been 
told that by several persons...



so we were interested in know in the internal condition of the guest 
vm when the freeze happened

How can we analyse the core file generated by "virsh dump "


http://bfy.tw/LhMS might help with that

I'd say that you should start by updating the OS on both host and
guest. Both OSes are heavily outdated, you lack YEARS of updates.

Hi
Thanks for the reply

We have seen the same guest VM freezing on vmware ESXi machine also , so we
were interested in know in the internal condition of the guest vm when the
freeze happened
How can we analyse the core file generated by "virsh dump "

Thanks and regards
Akshar
