>
> A race condition between block pool initialization and the directory scanner
> may cause a mass deletion of blocks in multiple storages.
> If block pool initialization finds a block on disk that is already in the
> replica map, it deletes one of the blocks based on size, GS, etc.
> Unfortunately it _always_ deletes one of the blocks even if identical, thus
> the replica map _must_ be empty when the pool is initialized.
> The directory scanner starts at a random time within its periodic interval
> (default 6h). If the scanner starts very early it races to populate the
> replica map, causing the block pool init to erroneously delete blocks.
