I is best to let the guest #VC on the page when this happens. If it happened because of a guest bug all necessary debugging data is in the guest and only the guest owner can obtain it. Then the guest owner can do a kdump on this unexpected #VC and collect the data to debug the issue. With just killing the guest from the host side this data would be lost. Regards, Joerg
