Hello,
some requested outputs

Vdsm generate a huge count of records in time, so I'm not shure if 
"hang" time is still included .
Problems occured 17-feb-2016 17:00-18:00 when VM shutdown was requested.
But some performance problems occured a day before ( I'm not shure about 
application problem = JAVA = running EBS )

In mail before  I attached pointers to bugs with any workaround

killall -9 libvirtd
rm /var/run/libvirtd.pid
/etc/init.d/libvirt-bin restart

which would solve current situation.
Is this  workaround safe enought?? Will stay VMs running ???

THX for any help, because I can't reboot hypervizor due huge DB traffic 
and no VM migration possibility via oVirt engine. ( mem synchro 
overloaded ?? )

Pa.
PS: logs sent directly to RH.
