It's kind of unfortunate how the developers went about this. First they recommended everyone upgrade to the RHEL6 branch as soon as it went stable. Then when a bunch of people did this they had all kinds of stability problems. Then after people (like me) upgraded to the latest stable kernel to fix the problems the developers then decided they wanted a testing branch and put my supposedly stable kernel into the testing branch. Then I ended up having high I/O problems with my kernel after a few weeks and have now downgraded to the supposedly stable (not really) 37.1 kernel.
This all seems kind of unusual to me to have the developers jerk everyone around like this. I know it caused me more problems then it should have simply because I listened to the developers who recommended I upgrade rather than just delaying production rollout of the RHEL6 kernel and take a wait and see approach. Now I'm kind of stuck with the only stable RHEL6 kernel (37.1) which isn't all that stable.
But OpenVZ is open source so what can I do but just live with it, file bug reports and hope for the best I guess.
