Re: XFS crashes on VMs

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?

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.
