hpvm 4.3 on Blade BL860C with 11iV31 Host run out of memory , memory leak ?

I migrated  6 BL860C Blades with 11.23 on it to each a host os 11iV31 -sept 2011 , and hpvm4.3  also from sept 2011. added 8GB memory into the Blade

The guest is  still same image  of 11.23 , only with latest patches Installed dec 2011 .

the  host  got his  own local  in blade bl860-C disk and the Guest got Left Hand storage  P4000 ( iscsi) .

recently I noticed :

 on each system  one Guest is  started

host got 48GB , the  Guest  is  configured as 38G  ,

When everything is  recently started  ( Host and Guest ) up to 2-3 GB is  free on the  host ( by top) . after some weeks  the  Guest is  frozen , and available  memory is  96MB .

Guest seems  still running but not available or accessible anymore .

even hpvmconsole  no response  or  hpvmstop refused . have to reboot the  Host.

 

seems  i have  a memory leak somewhere ..

found  this  Item :

Hello,

 

Yes, please install the latest AVIO drivers first, some known memory leak problems are solved with them.
