I can't find any cause here. Logs just stop, they were locked up
hard. ;( 

As a side note: libvirt/kvm supports watchdog. We could possibly setup
watchdog on all our guests so they at least reboot if they are
unresponsive. Of course that could lead to problems if they get stuck
in a reboot/lockup cycle.

Yeah, all I can think of is that it was too slow to answer and haproxy
didn't want to add it.

Well, we do run dns there, so we can tweak it. :) 

Hairpinning only comes into play if we try and list a phx2 external IP
in there. The problem with listing another external proxy is that then
it's likely to be slow... the request would need to go all the way out,
then back in to fas. 

We could run another proxy thats just internal to phx2. 
That seems like it's sort of overkill though. ;( 

I think I might sit down and draw up our proxy/app/fas/etc setup and
perhaps we can look at a picture and see how we can simplify it or make
it more robust.
