[Gluster-users] Shard Volumes - Data corruption

I've now managed to corrupt a VM QCOW2 image to the extent it could not be
mounted by KVM 3 times.

All three times it was by doing a live migration  while the VM was running
a disk benchmark.

Note: This was a corruption of the qcow2 format itself, not the guest
filesystem within the qcow2 image.


For me, the shard feature is yet a beta. Not even close to being reliable.


thanks,
