Thanks for the hint! The cluster is using ext4, and judging from the linked thread this could have indeed be caused by a stalling hypervisor.

A quick Google search suggests that it might be related to leveldb.

Essentially, one of our toy clusters dissolved itself: · 3 masters, each running Mesos (1.2.1), Aurora (0.19.0), and ZooKeeper (3.4.5) for leader election · Master 1 and master 2 had 100% disk usage, because /var/lib/mesos/replicated_log/LOG had grown to about 170 GB · The replicated log of both Master 1 and 2 was corrupted. A process restart did not fix it. · The ZooKeeper on Master 2 was corrupted as well. Logs indicated this was caused by the full disk. · Master 3 was the leading Mesos master and healthy. Its disk usage was normal. The content of /var/lib/mesos/replicated_log/LOG was an endless stream of: 2018/01/04-12:30:56.776466 7f65aae877c0 Recovering log #1753 2018/01/04-12:30:56.776577 7f65aae877c0 Level-0 table #1756: started 2018/01/04-12:30:56.778885 7f65aae877c0 Level-0 table #1756: 7526 bytes OK 2018/01/04-12:30:56.782433 7f65aae877c0 Delete type=0 #1753 2018/01/04-12:30:56.782484 7f65aae877c0 Delete type=3 #1751 2018/01/04-12:30:56.782642 7f6597fff700 Level-0 table #1759: started 2018/01/04-12:30:56.782686 7f6597fff700 Level-0 table #1759: 0 bytes OK 2018/01/04-12:30:56.783242 7f6597fff700 Delete type=0 #1757 2018/01/04-12:30:56.783312 7f6597fff700 Compacting 4@0 + 1@1 files 2018/01/04-12:30:56.783499 7f6597fff700 compacted to: files[ 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 ] 2018/01/04-12:30:56.783538 7f6597fff700 Delete type=2 #1760 2018/01/04-12:30:56.783563 7f6597fff700 Compaction error: IO error: /var/lib/mesos/replicated_log/001735.sst: No such file or directory 2018/01/04-12:30:56.783598 7f6597fff700 Manual compaction at level-0 from (begin) ..

After a few seconds (30s-60s or so) it got restarted as well · Master 3 was now leading (and continued to do so) I have to admit I am a bit surprised that the restart scenario could lead to the issues described above. Has anyone seen similar issues as well? Thanks and best regards, Stephan
