Java Console and spice would still be able to connect if the vm was
crashed wouldn't they?

Huge number of:

Feb 11 17:54:13 vng pvedaemon[279127]: WARNING: unable to connect to
VM 500 socket - timeout after 31 retries
Feb 11 17:54:21 vng pvestatd[2985]: WARNING: unable to connect to VM
500 socket - timeout after 31 retries

Looks like a switch may been have disconnected for a few seconds round
5:30pm which I imagine would given issues to our NFS share :( but I
would have though more than one vm would be giving issues in that
case.

I'll keep monitoring it for now,

thanks
