We are using openvz on top of drbd in a failover system on CentOS 5. This was working great for over a year. The last working kernel without any issue was 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.028stab057.2
After this something has changed that is causing high iowait. The fopen operation is taking so long that mysql queries hang for over a minute to open a table. named starts failing as well. This is happening on a variety of hardware which was working great up to 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.028stab057.2
We have also tried upgrading drbd to 8.2 and 8.3. Same result on all combination. Tried latest kernel 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.028stab069. Same problem. The only common variable is openvz kernels after 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.028stab057.2
Any idea what has changed? Any pointers? Is anyone available to take a look? Successful resolution will be compensated. Thank you.
