We use only virtio and these problems are persistent - temporarily suspending a node (e.g. HW or Gluster upgrade, reboot) is very scary, because we often end up with read-only filesystems on all VMs. However we use ext4, so I cannot comment on XFS. This discussion will probably end before I migrate VMs from Gluster to local storage on our Openstack nodes, but I might run some tests afterwards and keep you posted. -ps _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
