[Xen-users] Block devices stuck in dead domain?

["John Hannfield" <hal9020@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm running xen 3.1.0 on a AMD Opteron system.
Sometimes 'xm list' hangs forever, even though 'xm info' works straight away.
Usually this happens after a guest domain dies.

The only thing I can do, to get xm responsive again, is to stop and start
xend.

/etc/init.d/xend stop
/etc/init.d/xend start

This works fine, and the existing running VM's are OK.
But for the one that died, I can't restart it because xen sees the
file systems as still in use. I get the message.

Error: Device 769 (vbd) could not be connected.
Device /dev/vg1/www.abc.com_root is mounted in a guest domain,
and so cannot be mounted now.

Even though the guest domain is no longer in the 'xm list' output.
Any idea how to tell xen that it can use this LVM volume?

Thanks,
-- 

John
