17:08 csharp bshum: 14.04 host/12.04 guest? or the other way around?
17:09 tsbere_ joined #evergreen
17:37 bshum csharp: 12.04 host with 12.04 guests
17:38 bshum And an occasional 14.04 guest
17:38 bshum And 14.04 DB servers
17:38 bshum We're in a bit of flux I guess
17:38 bshum Switching back to older kernels 3.11 or less, things seem to have calmed down a bit with some of the VMs.
17:45 bshum I'm rolling everything back a step on the kernels later tonight to hopefully get us back to "normal"
17:46 bshum csharp: What happened was we were using I think the newer kernels with 12.04.  Like linux-generic-lts-saucy (13.10's)
17:47 bshum And so there's all these warning about how that's ending support in August or such and recommending that we switch up to linux-generic-lts-trusty (14.04's)
17:47 bshum So we did, and we ended up with all sorts of weird VM startup issues (kernel panic, massive network slowness, etc.)
17:48 bshum My understanding is that clean 12.04.5 has the trusty kernel version too, but I haven't tested that far ahead.
17:48 bshum In any case it's been a messy weekend.
21:29 jeff bshum: do you think the kernel on the hosts or the kernel on the guests was the issue, or both?
21:37 eeevil bshum:  wheezy, friend. wheezy.
21:49 bshum eeevil: Yeah I'm giving it strong consideration :)
21:51 bshum jeff: I think it was a bit of both actually.  When we downgraded the kernels on the guests, they stopped misbehaving so that they were booting again
21:51 bshum But until I switched the host back down, we were experiencing what I'd call strange network delays
21:51 bshum Like half a second or up to 2-3 seconds between actions issued and effect
21:52 bshum So the system would say, I took 2 seconds to do X, but then it wouldn't actually happen till like 4 second or some nonsense.  It's all super weird feeling.
