I have seen people complaining about this error for literally years now. Every single time they are told "upgrade to the latest kernel". Well, this has been plaguing me on a server over the course of 8 different kernel versions and it has never gone away.

This bug sometimes causes the server load to go out of control, causes network traffic to almost stop, and a number of other things.

This is the error I get in the logs and EVERY time I try to stop a container.


[root@node ~]# vzctl stop 5011
Stopping container ...

Any help would be great.

And yes, I have seen this report and I am running the latest kernel. http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1450
