Hi folks, I'm afraid that the host obstler went a bit strange whilst one of you was shutting down your vps. dom0 reported the following: Mar 20 11:04:38 obstler kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for v-jamesw to become free. Usage count = 1 over and over, and starting new VMs became impossible. I had no choice but to shut down all VMs and then reboot the server, start them again. You would have seen a clean shutdown and outage until around 1117Z when VMs started to be brought up again. All were up by 1126Z. I am very sorry for the outage and will step up my investigations on this -- it happened once before, 60 days ago.
