Promox 2.1 - Java 6 64 bits - 100% CPU

[bgrieder]

Hi,

Using Proxmox version

pve-manager: 2.1-1 (pve-manager/2.1/f9b0f63a)
running kernel: 2.6.32-11-pve
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 2.0-66

We are running two kind of 64 bits Open VZ VMs: Fedora 14 and Suse 11.2.
On the VMs, the Oracle JVMs of Java 6 64bits (releases 31 and 33) have their CPU go to 100% without any application activity.

The old 1.9 trick of setting the number of CPUs to 2 has no effect.

Has anyone faced this issue ?

Any hint ?

Thank you.

Thank you.
You are right! It is the "leap second day bug".

To fix it we did (on the host):

/etc/init.d/ntp stop
export LANG="en_EN"; date -s "`date`"

Then rebooted the host.

Our Proxmox 1.8 and 1.9 installs are not affected by this bug (they run 32 bit VMs).
