I need stability Hosts has a mezzanine dual-port HBA (4 Gbit); each HBA connected to a different FC-switch and the multipath connection has 2 active paths (one for each HBA). I confirm that with preallocated disk of the cloned VM I don't have indeed the previous problems. The same loop executed for about 66 times in a 10 minutes interval without any problem registered on hosts No message at all in /var/log/messages of both hosts. My storage domain not compromised It remains important the question about thin provisioning and SAN LUNs (aka with LVM based disks). In my opinion I shouldn't care of the kind of I/O made inside a VM and anyway it shouldn't interfere with my storage domain, bringing down completely my hosts/VMs. In theory there could be an application inside a VM that generates something similar to my loop and so would generate problems. For sure I can then notify VM responsible about his/her workload, but it should not compromise my virtual infrastructure I could have an RDBMS inside a VM and a user that creates a big datafile and that should imply many extend operations if the disk is thin provisioned.... What about [irs] values? Where are they located, in vdsm.conf? What are defaults for volume_utilization_percent and volume_utilization_chunk_mb? Did they change from 3.6 to 4.0 to 4.1? What I should do after changing them to make them active? Thanks in advance, Gianluca
