Re: [Users] Vm's being paused

Hi Dan, Sorry for only coming back to you now. The VM's are thin provisioned. The Server 2003 VM hasn't run out of disk space there is about 20Gigs free, and the usage barely grows as the VM only shares printers. The other VM that paused is also on thin provisioned disks and also has plenty space, this guest is running Centos 6.3 64bit and only runs basic reporting. After the 2003 guest was rebooted, the network card showed up as unplugged in ovirt, and we had to remove it, and re-add it again in order to correct the issue. The Centos VM did not have the same issue. I'm concerned that this might happen to a VM that's quite critical, any thoughts or ideas? The only recent changes have been updating from Dreyou 3.2 to the official Centos repo and updating to 3.3.1-2. Prior to updating I haven't had this issue. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Regards. Neil Wilson.
