Then it's likely *not* a bluescreen, but rather something in Xen. Unless the Windows system is instructed to not crash dump, not even mini-dump or has no or almost no pagefile configured.

I'm not sure what you're trying to obtain here, other than some domU debugging which is outside the console area anyway. jerry ___ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
Re: [CentOS-virt] Alternate console method for Windows 2003 server
I use virt-viewer, from a ssh session with the X and C parameters. But i think it uses VNC too. ssh -XC r...@server.company.domain # virt-viewer domU Replace domU with the name of the virtual machine. Regards.

[CentOS-virt] Alternate console method for Windows 2003 server
I have a DomU running Windows 2003 server that occasionally blue screens (or at least I assume it does). Obviously, when it does, I lose the ability to open a VNC console. Is there some method for sending the windows console to another location that can be viewed if the system dies? Centos 5.2 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5xen kernel -- James D.
