2a) is an upstream decision to have better disk integrity guarantees. There is a release notes entry since 17.10 (which is also refrenced from the 18.04 release notes) => https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtfulAardvark/ReleaseNotes#qemu_2.10 2b) is I think an upstream change by the PPC devs actually.

Yes, 16.10, 17.04, 17.10 releases are end of life, but they should still be accessible via http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu (16.10, 17.04) or regular archive mirrors (17.10, but it will at some point move to old-releases). So you could deploy 16.04 and dist-upgrade via

I did not suggest to install the Cloud Archive code in the 18.04 Guest. You said your host is 16.04 (Xenial) and there the different UCA's should be tried to bring new qemu/libvirt code to your host and due to that check if these newer versions already have a fix we would look for instead of

Ok, reading that your guests are customer systems I assume you'd need to setup a test system somewhere to confirm if different host qemu/libvirt/kernel versions would fix it. The list of interesting checks: 16.04 Host as-is + 18.04 Guest + qemu from UCA Ocata 16.04 Host as-is + 18.04 Guest + qemu

Also is this a thing that was triggered once, or reproducible every time you run it. In the latter case it might be very hard to track down. I checked and as part of the qemu verification I do run older guests in newer hipervisors. I do not yet do vice versa in a lot of tests, so even if this

Of the listed guests I assume Ubuntu 18.04 has the newest guest Kernel (read virtio drivers). Several questions to ensure this is right: 1. could you report the kernel version of each of your test guests (assuming 4.4 and 4.15 for Ubuntu, but the exact version would be great to know) 2. it
