Hi Rolf, Thanks for your answer. Do you know of a specific commit that was made to fix that issue or it just did not appear anymore? How frequently did you encoutner this issue? I also thought of just reformatting the cache, but I would remove all evidences/traces that could maybe be useful to investigate the issue. So if I have no-one interested in some post morten on the cache device in the coming days, I will proceed with that approach. There is also little tooling to trace, investigate or fix problems apparently. Is it something planned in the future? What is also odd to me is that the GUID listed in dmesg does not seem to match any device (eventhough it is clear that the message is about the cache device sdb1) Thanks!
