Hi,I can confirm that after setting these two options, I haven't encountered disk corruptions anymore.The downside, is that at least for me it had a pretty big impact on performance.The iops really went down - performing inside vm fio tests.On Wed, Mar 27, 2019, 07:03 Krutika Dhananjay <kdhananj@redhat.com> wrote:_______________________________________________Could you enable strict-o-direct and disable remote-dio on the src volume as well, restart the vms on "old" and retry migration?# gluster volume set <VOLNAME> performance.strict-o-direct on# gluster volume set <VOLNAME> network.remote-dio off-KrutikaOn Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 10:32 PM Sander Hoentjen <sander@hoentjen.eu> wrote:On 26-03-19 14:23, Sahina Bose wrote:

Around the time of corruption I see the message:
The message "I [MSGID: 133017] [shard.c:4941:shard_seek] 0-ZoneA_Gluster1-shard: seek called on 7fabc273-3d8a-4a49-8906-b8ccbea4a49f. [Operation not supported]" repeated 231 times between [2019-03-26 13:14:22.297333] and [2019-03-26 13:15:42.912170]
I also see this message at other times, when I don't see the corruption occur, though.
