Actually I got this on 3 VMs on my Azure Pack. One 15.10 and two 14.04.03. On 15.10 I tried to fsck the root fs before reboot. What could go wrong as fs is already read-only I thought. Here is the session:
~# touch /oioi touch: cannot touch '/oioi': Read-only file system ~# fsck / <--- At this point it corrupted everything already. fsck from util-linux 2.26.2 e2fsck 1.42.12 (29-Aug-2014) cloudimg-rootfs: recovering journal fsck.ext4: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to re-open cloudimg-rootfs cloudimg-rootfs: ********** WARNING: Filesystem still has errors ********** ~# fsck -f / fsck from util-linux 2.26.2 fsck.ext4: Unable to resolve 'UUID=5370f2f3-e06a-4682-bc53-2f844792ebe1' ~# ls -la / total 0 After reboot grub said it cannot find FS so I booted it from another HDD and fcsked from that. It reported a lot of errors but rendered the FS as explained before - everything in lost+found. On 14.04 I rebooted without fsck. After boot it said that FS i corrupted so I can Skip mounting it (what root?) or try Manualy fix it. So I pressed the M but it looked like it's frozen. Luckily I restored all VMs from the backup. Yes, the very same backup that actually triggered the issue as we found it's 100% correlated that the corruption happens when the backup job starts on HV. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470250 Title: [Hyper-V] Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Generation 2 SCSI Errors on VSS Based Backups Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Vivid: In Progress Status in linux source package in Wily: In Progress Bug description: Customers have reported running various versions of Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS on Generation 2 Hyper-V Hosts.

This relates to the VSS "Windows Server Backup" process that kicks off at midnight on the host and finishes an hour and half later. Yes, we do have hv_vss_daemon and hv_kvp_daemon running for the correct kernel version we have. We're currently running kernel version 3.13.0-49-generic #83 on one system and 3.16.0-34-generic #37 on the other. -- We see the same errors on both. As a result, we've been hesitant to drop any more ubuntu guests on our 2012R2 hyper-v system because of this. We can stop the backup process and all is good, but we need nightly backups to image all of our VM's. All the windows guests have no issues of course. We also have some CentOS based guests running without issues from what we've seen.
