-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 There are no monitors on the new node. It doesn't look like there has been any new corruption since we stopped changing the cache modes. Upon closer inspection, some files have been changed such that binary files are now ASCII files and visa versa. These are readable ASCII files and are things like PHP or script files. Or C files where ASCII files should be. I've seen this type of corruption before when a SAN node misbehaved and both controllers were writing concurrently to the backend disks. The volume was only mounted by one host, but the writes were split between the controllers when it should have been active/passive. We have killed off the OSDs on the new node as a precaution and will try to replicate this in our lab. I suspicion is that is has to do with the cache promotion code update, but I'm not sure how it would have caused this. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: Mailvelope v1.3.6 Comment:
