This sounds somewhat like the problem that I reported a few days ago. Except in my case I could not get access to the machine to check any processes, it was hung tight. The hypervisor does indicate that it was using alot of CPU time, which would suggest a loop.

I am having an issue with hobbit 4.2.0 built on a RedHat 9.0 system. Basically, after running for about 15 hours or so, the bbtest-net command hangs, and all network tests turn purple.
That's obviously bad. I suppose you killed off the bbtest-net process to
get things running again. If it happens again, could you kill it with
kill -6 <bbtest-net PID>
This causes it to dump a core-file in the ~hobbit/server/tmp/ directory
which should help me track down where it is hanging.
Did you notice if the process was using a lot of cpu time, or if it
was just completely stalled? Was there an "fping" or "hobbitping"
process hanging around also?

Henrik
