We are having a serious problem with VM's crashing hard (BSOD) on our Xen servers.

When in a VM and broswe our DFS namespace. if you try rename a folder we get a BSOD. We can pretty much reproduce this at will on many different VM. Load is not an apparent factor. Server hosting the DFS link are not reporting any errors. This happens through the console or RDP on 32/64 but guests.

Xen has been updated (ga1 & ga2). Xen tool has also been updated on the VM's

Servers specs are:
Dell 2950
32G of ram
ISCSI HBA QL4060 (single port)
2 on board NIC /broadcom
1 PCI Express quad port nic intel

Approximatly 20 VM spread out over our 2 Xen hosts.


This is CRAZY!!!!

Anyone seen anything like this? Any advice would be great

Hi Daniel,

Are these machines a fresh build straight in XenServer or have they gone through a P2V process?
