Hello out there,

 We had a problem while rebooting one of our xen boxes. The case
showed us that while trying to `xm create ...` the xm command will
exit with "err 2, no such file or directory". But `stat vm.conf`
showed that the file was there.

 We realized that the file system was full, and removed some space.
However, now with free space, xm refused to start domains.

  The solution came by rebooting the box, and starting again the vm's by hand.

  While I reccon our foult on letting the / get filled, I don't
understand the error message stderr'ored by xm, "no such file or
directory". Pretty confusing.

   xen 3.03, dell 1950 with a big ram support and raid 1.

  Is this a known problem? How can we help getting this sorted?

 Thanks for this great app, and for the time spent on this mail, in advance.

Kind regards,
