    This issue had already happened with me.You may also experience blade reset and guests not going up. Please upgrade to, at least, HF2. I should suggest HF4 which also fixed a long term uptime issue that may lead to a full reboot of the blade.

    And please, include the hardware you are working with. If is not B2100, you should go with 11.4.x . B2100 have only 16gb and with 11.4 will lead the 4 guests to be less capable of running more than 1 or 2 modules.

    We are using the C2400 with B2100 blades. We're looking at upgrading to a later HF of 11.2.
