keep it running. If you must update/upgrade services users are using on the
virtual image (Firefox, etc), then yes, Xen is overkill and adds complexity.
In some cases, downtime is unavoidable.

Second, I have users with long running calculations (often weeks
or more) which would be interrupted if the machine were rebooted into an
updated kernel. User-writing code often check-points, so the actual
calculation time lost is not significant,

useradd was failing because it was trying to create group "mysql" which
was already present in the LDAP. The solution is to
that there's no user:group
mysql:mysql, which is indeed the case on a freshly installed box.
This was the output of `yum install` command:
Installing: mysql-server ### [10/11]

useradd: group mysql exists - if you want to add this user to that
group, use -g.

Indeed, group "mysql" somehow got defined in our LDAP tree :(.
Sorry for noise and thanks for your reactions.
