George:
In my experience, 90+% of the time, unexplained failures to start are the result of not enough available memory on the pool master. This is one of the reasons I've put so much effort into the load balancing on XCCS.

When it happens, try migrating some of the VMs off the pool master and see if that helps.

Good day.

Suddenly on pretty high loaded pool with about 50 VM per 5 hosts I got
following problem vm does not start and start command silently waiting.

xe task-list displays pack of tasks with same status and resident-on:

             error_info ( RO):
     allowed_operations ( RO): Cancel


My next question: how can I know what happens? Where to look next?
dmesg, daemon.log, messages does not contain any valuable information.

I filter xensource.log but it only contain connection about task
querying.

How can I found what prevent VM starts?
