How long does it take before it silently crashes?

Any comment to this ?
> How long does it take before it silently crashes?
Last time it took 26 minutes (running top with 0.5 seconds update in
parallel). Last active process was xend.
This time only 1½ minutes:
"Screenshot":
top - 14:34:44 up 1 min, 1 user, load average: 0.23, 0.16, 0.06
Tasks: 158 total, 2 running, 156 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 0.0%us, 0.3%sy, 0.0%ni, 99.7%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st
Mem: 1919620k total, 190480k used, 1729140k free, 4576k buffers
Swap: 0k total, 0k used, 0k free, 42384k cached
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
6782 root 20 0 2316 1168 872 R 2 0.1 0:00.99 top
1 root 20 0 2852 1692 548 S 0 0.1 0:01.57 init
Intrestingly in my previous test the "xend" refused to start and the system
did not crash for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Then I rebooted, because the "xend" was
not running. The "xend" gave the following error message:
File "usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xen/util/pci.py", line 1226, in find_capability
('Looped capability chain: %s' % self.name))
PciDeviceParseError: Looped capability chain: 0000:07:00.0
[2010-09-08 14:28:26 6885] INFO (SrvDaemon:220) Xend exited with status 1.
This seems to be caused by wrong PCI data (or initialization). An "lspci" gave
the following:
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection (rev ff)
08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection (rev ff)
The revision of 'ff' is bogus. The pci config data presented in /sys or /proc was
only "ff,ff,...", hence the wrong revision.
I had to switch of the hardware to normalize this.
After this the "xend" was starting and the system crashed...

Sven

Ok.. try using "watchdog" parameter for Xen.gz in grub.conf
and see if that makes a difference..
