[ovirt-users] Ovirt vm's paused due to storage error

I’ve also encounter something similar on my setup, ovirt 3.1.9 with a gluster 3.12.3 storage cluster. All the storage domains in question are setup as gluster volumes & sharded, and I’ve enabled libgfapi support in the engine. It’s happened primarily to VMs that haven’t been restarted to switch to gfapi yet (still have fuse mounts for these), but one or two VMs that have been switched to gfapi mounts as well.

I started updating the storage cluster to gluster 3.12.6 yesterday and got more annoying/bad behavior as well. Many VMs that were “high disk use” VMs experienced hangs, but not as storage related pauses. Instead, they hang and their watchdogs eventually reported CPU hangs. All did eventually resume normal operation, but it was annoying, to be sure. The Ovirt Engine also lost contact with all of my VMs (unknown status, ? in GUI), even though it still had contact with the hosts. My gluster cluster reported no errors, volume status was normal, and all peers and bricks were connected. Didn’t see anything in the gluster logs that indicated problems, but there were reports of failed heals that eventually went away. 

Seems like something in vdsm and/or libgfapi isn’t handling the gfapi mounts well during healing and the related locks, but I can’t tell what it is. I’ve got two more servers in the cluster to upgrade to 3.12.6 yet, and I’ll keep an eye on more logs while I’m doing it, will report on it after I get more info.
