Hi,

I upgraded to the CentOS 6.7 release which came out last month and as p=
romised the halt_poll_ns parameter was available.
Last week I tested the availability status every 5 minutes on my Wordpr=
ess VM's with the halt_poll_ns kernel param set on DOM0. I'm pleased to=
 announce that it solves the problem!

My guess is that a lot people out there have the same problem but do no=
t know the solution. Why not put it in the kernel by default?

Thanks a lot for all the help!
