Hello list! I'm having a metadata corruption on an XFS filesystem, I googled the error but didn't find anything about it. Background: One CentOS 7.6 box with 2 SSD disks and 3 SATA disks. Those disks are synchorized via DRBD with 5 identical disks on another identical box (for HA). The SSDs form an LVM group with one VG and one LV. This LV is then formatted with XFS and mounted with quotas enabled. The SATA disks form another LVM group with one VG and one LV, also formatted with XFS and mounted quotas enabled. Each pair of servers has keepalived to make sure only one of them puts the DRBD resources as primary and can mount the LVs.
