ECC RAM everywhere: hosts and storage. I even run Memtest86 on both hypervisor hosts just be sure. No errors. I haven’t had the opportunity to run it on the storage yet.
After I’ve sent that message yesterday, the engine VM crashed again, filesystem went offline. There was some discards (again) on the switch, probably due to the “boot storm” of other VM’s. But this time a simple reboot fixed the filesystem and the hosted engine VM was back. Since it was an extremely small amount of time, I’ve checked everything again, and only the discards issues came up, there are ~90k discards on Po2 (which is the LACP interface of the hypervisor). Since the fact, I enabled hardware flow control on the ports of the switch, but discards are still happening: Port Align-Err FCS-Err Xmit-Err Rcv-Err UnderSize OutDiscards Po1 0 0 0 0 0 0 Po2 0 0 0 0 0 3650 Po3 0 0 0 0 0 0 Po4 0 0 0 0 0 0 Po5 0 0 0 0 0 0 Po6 0 0 0 0 0 0 Po7 0 0 0 0 0 0 Po20 0 0 0 0 0 13788 I think this may be related… but it’s just a guess.
