We haven't been able to isolate what causes it but it's unlikely to be hardware as it happens on quite a few of our customer's boxes. We also use XFS on linux 2.6 as a file system, so the FS should be fairly tolerant to power-outages. Any ideas as to how I might go about isolating this? Have you heard any other reports of this kind and suggested remedies?

Are you running with fsync = off? and did the hosts experience any power-outage recently?
