The syslog is going to a syslog-server, but there is nothing to see.
Where can i set the debug level for the scsid? I started the iscsid
from the command-line and the system rebooted urgently.

I do not use the iscsi-backend of xen/libvirt - the VMs are still in
img-files. The option is still there through libvirt, but i did't try
it out yet.

Thank you,

Florian

Is there any kernel message before reboot (/var/log/*), or is there some XEN 
message (xm dmesg (as long as it's still running))?

Maybe changing the syslog to write messages synchonously and putting messages 
on a 
synchronously writing filesystem would be helpful to capture the last messages. 
Maybe something like
while xm dmesg>>xen.log
do
  sleep 1 # or longer
done

will be helpful.

I'm not using file backends for XEN (yet); how did you configure those?

Ulrich
