[Users] Re: vzmigrate left me a zombie container

[Gregor at HostGIS]

I got this all the time on other containers, and nobody was ever able to 
diagnose it. Fortunately the issue was corrected by upgrading to the 
latest 2.6.18 kernel and the latest vzctl.

But the kernel fix, as well as the "fix" for the frozen containers, was 
to reboot the HN. And the HN shutdown process never went smoothly 
because the VEs couldn't stop; eventually a power-cycle was necessary.
