Same thing happen again when today i updated host kernel-xen from 2.6.20-
1.2952.fc6xen To 2.6.20-1.2999.fc6xen. It working fine at domUs but when I
reboot the domO into 2.6.20-1.2999.fc6xen it start giving these errors in

Aug 23 18:41:52 xxxx kernel: printk: 4 messages suppressed.
Aug 23 18:41:52 xxxx kernel: xen_net: Memory squeeze in netback driver.
Aug 23 18:41:57 xxxxl kernel: printk: 4 messages suppressed.
Aug 23 18:41:57 xxxx kernel: xen_net: Memory squeeze in netback driver.
Aug 23 18:42:02 xxxxxl kernel: printk: 4 messages suppressed.
Aug 23 18:42:02 xxx kernel: xen_net: Memory squeeze in netback driver.

and all domUs become unaccessible, in end I have to revert back to 2.6.20-
1.2952.fc6xen at domO (host) :-s

Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
