Hello,
My kernel version is 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.028stab039.1.
We use openvz containers in a shared hosting environment. The containers mount the same nfs filesystems that our other non-openvz servers use. In particular, our ftp server runs on a different machine than the openvz servers, and our customers who are in containers use the ftp server to upload files, while their sites are served from the container servers.
We've had intermittent reports of files being uploaded via ftp that have a delay before they are seen from within the container. We've also had reports of new versions of files being uploaded with ftp, and the new versions are seen by downloading the files via ftp while the old versions are seen when downloaded from a browser (from the website within the container).
I've been able to verify that the customer reports are accurate at least several times. However, as I said, it does seem intermittent.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has noticed anything like this.
Thanks,
Kristina
