I'll do more research into this when I get back to work. The Release Notes say: "Soft lockup messages after suspend/resume or live migration (Red Hat Bugzilla 250994 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250994>). These messages are harmless, but there may be a period of inactivity in the guest during live migration as a result of the lockup." This seems to imply that the delay during the live migration is causing the messages. In my case the messages persist forever long after the migration. I might take a look at the patched kernel and see it there's a specific fix that could be applied to a more recent kernel. Brett
