Re: CephFS "corruption" -- Nulled bytes

It may have been. Although the timestamp on the file was almost a
month ago. The typical workflow for this particular file is to copy an
updated version overtop of it.

i.e. 'cp qss kstat'

I'm not sure if cp semantics would keep the same inode and simply
truncate/overwrite the contents, or if it would do an unlink and then
create a new file.
