Well, replica inconsistency happens only when the VM terminates
unexpectedly.  If the vm image needs a fix, the guest os filesystem
should fix it.  What sheepdog should do is only keeping consistency so
that the VMs doesn't read the wrong data as a block storage, isn't it?
Have you ever encountered a situation where you need to specify a
replica to be recovered?

Thanks,
