I am running xen 3.2-1 (Debian 3.2.1-2) on Debian Lenny
(2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 10) on two identical production
systems.
This morning on one of the systems, xentop stopped displaying. Running
xentop results in:
unable to open xenstore
: Connection refused
Failed to initialize xenstat library
xm list:
Error: (9, 'Bad file descriptor')
xm dmseg:
Error: Subcommand dmseg not found!
The DomUs appear to be running fine, I just can't monitor or control
them. Do I need to be concerned of the DomUs stability?
I have found numerous links relating to the same symptoms, but no
solution other than a reboot. What causes this problem?
As they are running critical services on a production system, my last
resort would be rebooting the Dom0. Is there anything else I can do?
Please help!
Steve
