Do you have logs from old and new gluster volumes? Any errors in the
new volume's fuse mount logs?
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.
