We have too big problems with this scheduler bug. It occurs on several Lenny Machines running as VM on ESX3.5U4 Installed Kernel Package is 2.6.26-19
The Machines are not crashing, but they tend to consume lots of cpu resources until they are nearly unusable or affect other VMs running on the ESX Host. This is a "normal" log message from one Vm running a lot of cron jobs: At the time of writing two cron processes each take 49,9% of cpu :( regards, Matthias [1391701.476841] INFO: task cron:15861 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
