Category: intel Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: gwachs (gerdwachs) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Restarted Windows 2003 Server guests have disk corruption Initial Comment: I have a number of Windows 2003 32Bit guests. I use them to perform installation and configuration tests of a large software product. During these tests, the guests are restarted. Randomly, the guests produce disk corruption messages after a restart. The following are two examples : ------------------------------------------------------- Windows Registry Hive Recovered Registry hive (file): SOFTWARE was corrupted and it has been recovered. Some data might have been lost. ------------------------------------------------------- The system cannot log on due to the following error: Unable to complete the requested operation because of either a catastrophic media failure or a data structure corruption on the disk. ------------------------------------------------------- OS : Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 Kernel : 2.6.24-18-server #1 SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux KVM : kvm-70 CPU : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU @ 2.40GHz flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe syscall nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good pni monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xt Start Command : sudo /usr/local/kvm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -hda asit51ascs.img \ -m 1024 -std-vga -boot c -k sv -usb -usbdevice tablet -snapshot -vnc :51 \ -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:16:3e:00:51:00 -net tap,vlan=0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup-br0 \ -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=00:16:3e:00:51:01 -net tap,vlan=1,script=/etc/qemu-ifup-br1 no-kvm : Cannot do due to the loss of performance.
