<p>Unfortunately no, not on dom0 nor on the domU that is the router (that one did hit the conntrack limit not too long ago, so it was one of the first things we checked). Checked dmsg and /var/log/messages on all of the domUs and didn't see anything network or hardware related.</p>

<pre>Does dmesg show anything suspicious that might for example point to an
overflowing connection tracking table or something similar?

It also happens pinging to the domUs from other physical machines. netstat -i in dom0 shows dropped packets (TX-DRP) on the vif devices. Within the domUs it comes back with zeros. It only seems to happen under fairly heavy load. The machines in question are on the same bridge xen. That bridge has separate subnets and one domU is a router that routes between them (and performs LVS functions). Aaron On Mon, 26 Sep 2011 14:08:47 -0500, Nehemiah wrote:
