In Proulx's Corollary to Murphy's Law, just after hitting send I tried something that "worked".
I noticed the volume shared nothing with the image it was based on so tried "flattening" it just to try something. Oddly that worked, that or just having waited in power off state for an hour wile I was at lunch. Still have no theory on why it broke or how that could be a fix...if anyone else does please do tell :) Thanks, -JOn On Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 12:58:16PM -0400, Jonathan Proulx wrote: :Hi All, : :I have a VM with ephemeral root on RBD spewing I/O erros on boot after :hypervisor crash.
