have been searching an pulling my hear out for the last 6 hours. I have a virtual machine that has been running fine for the last six months. I was happy ssh'ing into it and it was running a database and some small apps. Tonight ssh stopped working, so I decided to reboot the machine. I now have the following situation:
virsh list --all states machine as running
I can ping the machine and get a reply
When I ssh to the machine I see "ssh: connect to host [myserver] port 22: Connection refused"
nmap does not show port 22 as open
I have tried to:
- reboot the machine once more (no luck)
- mount the filesystem and check /etc/ssh/sshd.conf (has not changed since working situation)
- install virsh console, however this does not seem to work
When I mount the fs directly using losetup the strange thing is that file dates seem to be frozen in /var/log/ around the time of the crash. If I look in /var/run/ I can see an sshd.pid, but the time is 6 hours ago (and numerous reboots).
My virsh xml looks like this:

I'm sort of lost as to where I can look to get the machine up and running again.
On the same instance of kvm I have another server running which is working fine. Both are Ubuntu 12.04.
All help is welcome....
