hi, i just let you know that xen not working properly in centos 5.4 there are upstream fix for this, but for those who use xen it's better to wait until centos release updates for 5.4 otherwise xen's domU won't start.

I think I saw the issue you're referring to. Does it affect 5.4 domU in older dom0's? I updated a VM and its host yesterday. The domU didn't start until I'd finished the upgrade on dom0.

Are you thinking of RHSA-2009:1472-1? Comparison point, upgraded several domU's on a box to 5.4 and halted/created them with no boot issue. Upgraded the dom0 later to 5.4 and also had no restart problems. So I have a couple of dom0's running a mix of 5.3 and 5.4 domU's (x86_64 and i386) with no problems. The bug report does say, "domU sometimes fails to reboot," so looks to be a circumstantial issue, not a definite one. -Alan

Same thing here: upgraded domU to 5.4, rebooted, no problem. After that I upgraded dom0 to 5.4, rebootet, still no problems.
So it's not true that there is a *general* problem with Xen and 5.4
