Xenserver: One VM crashed, xe not reacting any more

Question

We are running a xenserver. One VM crashed, the other VMs seem to run normally.

But now we can not restart this VM any more.

Not even xe-toolstack-restart is showing any reaction any more.

We do not want to do a hard-reset of the full system. How can we get the control back?

If all of your vms are shutdown gracefully then a hard shutdown of XenServer doesn't really pose any danger

The problem is exactly this: We want to avoid shutting down the VMs. – Alex Feb 20 '13 at 12:10

You could try

/opt/xensource/debug/destroy_domain -domid <UUID of domain>

It worked for me once.
