Sarah, Thanks for looking into this. Adding a tmpfs mount to xencommons, if using the C xenstored, might be a good idea -- I'll float that with upstream and see what they say. As an alternate, can you try using the ocaml-based oxenstored (which doesn't use the filesystem as its atomicity mechanism)? To use oxenstored: * Install the xen-ocaml package * Reboot dom0 * Verify that oxenstored is running: # ps ax | grep xenstore 654 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/oxenstored --pid-file /var/run/xenstored.pid (On my to-do list is to get oxenstored into the core xen-runtime package, which would also resolve this situation, I believe.)
