This may well be the issue. We've had a run in with the OOM killer
because we're over committing memory on the VM's. We're busy fixing
that. But I could not find a log on the VM that tells me something
yet. We've only seen the VM host kill the VM so far.

We're getting

Write to /proc/349/oom_score_adj failed with EACCES , linux user does
not have CAP_SYS_RESOURCE
No server process protection from OOM killer

in the pcmon and pagemanager logs. I think this happens once the
resources are unavailable.
