[Bug 672793] [NEW] system is wedged, new ssh connections are closed instantly and console is black with a mouse but does not accept keyboard input

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

This started happening on Thursday November 4th.

This only seems to happen when the host is idle at the console. although
a KVM instance was actively being used on one of the effected hosts.

The system will hang and will be unresponsive to any keyboard input
although you can see a mouse cursor.

ssh connections are closed as if they were filtered.

ctl-alt F* does not work

oddly enough a windows KVM host was still responsive.

A coworker is also having this issue with his machine which is running
vm's in virtualbox

Both systems are Dell Optiplex 960s

The system did not respond to a soft shutdown with the power button

We were forced to reboot by using the NMI shutdown by holding the power
button down.

Unfortunately it appears that syslog just quit logging and there are no
errors in any log files.

We both did run updates and here is the entry of what was updated that
day on my machine.
