This page document the migration :

http://linux-vserver.org/FromLennysKernelToBenGsKernel/Fr

but it's in french :-/

To summarize in your case :

1. You need the iunlink flag on hashified files :

~# find /srv/vservers/.hash -type f

-----UIC- /srv/vservers/.hash/dd/76 /a83691887d3cd1fddcc6dcab2d5c7b8ee273-00000000
[...]

2. If you don't see the "U" (caps one), it isn't set. (A lowercase "u"
means flag possible, but not enabled.)

So, to enable it :

~# find /srv/vservers/.hash -type f -exec setattr --iunlink {} \;

After that, restart all vservers :

~# for vs in $(ls -1 /srv/vservers)
do
vserver $vs restart
done

(Of course, substitue "/srv/vservers" as approriate for your setup.)

Hih,
