[Xen-users] Watchdog and live migration

[Wouter de Geus <benv-xensource.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

I have two machines running Xen, one has v4.1.1 and the other v4.1.2.
On top I have a DRBD block device on which my test domU runs (Slackware v13.37
using a kernel.org kernel version 3.2.6).

The domU runs fine, but when I migrate it to the other dom0 something weird 
happens:
At first everything seems fine, the domain is gone on host 1 and runs on host 2.
(a ssh session to the domU survives and works fine as well), but after a minute 
orso
suddenly the domain is completely gone! (no corpse left on either dom0)

The logs show a normal shutdown as far as I can tell, the only hint as to why 
it 
shut down is in 'xm dmesg' on the migration target dom0:
(XEN) Watchdog timer fired for domain 19

Does anyone know what is happenening here and why the migration triggers this?
(and possible solutions)
Is this a bug in Xen or did I do something stupid?

In the domU a /dev/watchdog exists, but I never touch it myself.

Thanks for reading :)

Regards,

Wouter.
