Thanks Eric, We ran xfs_repair and were able to get it back into a running state. This is fine for a test & dev but in production it won't be acceptable. What other data do we need to get to the bottom of this? On Wed, May 27, 2015 at 4:27 PM, Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > That's not a crash. That is xfs detecting on disk corruption which likely happened at some time prior. You should unmount and run xfs_repair, possibly with –n first if you would like to do a dry run to see what it might do. If you get fresh corruption after a full repair, then that becomes more interesting. It's possible that you have a problem with the underlying block layer or it's possible that it is an xfs bug - but I think this is not something that we have seen before. > > Eric > >> On May 27, 2015, at 6:06 PM, Shrinand Javadekar <shrinand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> I am running Openstack Swift in a VM with XFS as the underlying >> filesystem.
