Gio,
What tools are you using to create your VM? Iâm guessing
xm/xend. What happens if you use xl?

Hello

sorry, but I do not understand that 100%
I have one domU with one LVM partition created. There is no other domU or LVM
partition on this system.

The problem is that your tools are creating a /local/domain/vfb/0 node in
xenstore. The PV drivers try to gracefully close down the backend for this
using the same fe closing -> be closing -> fe closed -> be closed
state dance that it uses for vifs and this is not working.
Since these is actually no fe driver for vfb, I suggest you just make sure this
node does not exist.
