I made 2 modifications and currently no more soft lockup has happened 1) removed irqbalance daemon from ubuntu server 2) unchecked "Synchronize guest time with host" from VM setting (VMWare esx)
Modification 1) most probably solved the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1035855 Title: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#7 stuck for 23s!
