Title: CPU stalls in Vmware ESXI 5.1 Post by: TheEricHarris on Saturday 20 September 2014, 01:45:52 am I have a 2.5.2 server running on a ESXi 5.1 server. I'm seeing this in the messages once or twice a day:

Any ideas? Not sure why I stick around with Endian, but I have 15 of these boxes around the country and it's been great to me. Just wish it had better support from the community.

I tried Endian 2.5.2 and XenServer 6.2.0 with Endian, same thing. It was a ML110. When I changed bios feature about power management it was more stable but sometimes hangs again. So I've buyed new hardware.
