XenServer - Crash post mortem
-
On a somewhat unrelated note, thanks for getting me to look at the /var/log directory on the XenServer here. Had a bunch of old logs clogging things up (500MB on the tiny little root partition.) Moved those off to my workstation for now, probably need to take some time and see what's going on.

When Windows crashes, it still has the ability to write things back to the disk during the crash process - does nix not do the same?
But Linux didn't crash here, right? It didn't boot up at all?
I guess I mistook this to be you saying that Linux didn't crash - it did, but not because of software, but because of hardware, so it's not Linux's fault, it's hardware's fault.
OK I gotcha!
So now I need to get another SD card and create images of it.
