Hi,

we are testing the current proxmox version with a glusterfs storage backend 
and have a strange issue with file getting corupted inside the virtual 
machines. For what reason ever from one moment to another binaries can not 
longer be executed, scripts are damaged and so on. In the logs I get errors 
like this:

May 30 11:22:36 ns1 dockerd[1234]: time="2023-05-30T11:22:36.874765091+02:00" 
level=warning msg="Running modprobe bridge br_netfilter failed with message: 
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'bridge': Exec format error\nmodprobe: ERROR: 
could not insert 'br_netfilter': Exec format error\ninsmod 
/lib/modules/5.15.0-72-generic/kernel/net/802/stp.ko \ninsmod 
/lib/modules/5.15.0-72-generic/kernel/net/802/stp.ko \n, error: exit status 1"

On such a broken system a file brings the following:

root@ns1:~# file /lib/modules/5.15.0-72-generic/kernel/net/802/stp.ko
/lib/modules/5.15.0-72-generic/kernel/net/802/stp.ko: data
root@ns1:~#

On a normal system it looks like this:

root@gluster1:~# file /lib/modules/5.15.0-72-generic/kernel/net/802/stp.ko
/lib/modules/5.15.0-72-generic/kernel/net/802/stp.ko: ELF 64-bit LSB 
relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), 
BuildID[sha1]=1084f7cfcffbd4c607724fba287c0ea7fc5775
root@gluster1:~#

there are not only kernel modules afected. I saw the same behaviour for 
scripts, icinga check modules, the sendmail binary and so on, I think it is 
totaly random :-(.

We have the problems with newly installed VMs, VMs cloned from a template 
create on our proxmox host and with VMs which we used before with libvirtd 
and migrated to our new proxmox machine. So IMHO it can not be related to 
the way we create new virtual machines...

Our glusterfs storage backend consists of three servers all running Ubuntu 
22.04 and glusterfs version 10.1. There are no errors in the logs on the 
glusterfs hosts when a VM crashes and because some times also icinga plugins 
get corupted I do get a very exact time range to search in the logs for 
errors and warnings.

However, I think it has something to do with our glusterfs setup. If I clone 
a VM from a template I get the following:

root@proxmox1:~# qm clone 9000 200 --full --name testvm --description 
"testvm" --storage gfs_vms

root@proxmox1:~#

Is this message about the subvolumes which are down normal or might this be 
the reason for our strange problems?

I have no idea how to further debug the problem so any helping idea or hint 
would be great. Pleae let me also know if I can provide more infos regarding 
our setup.

Ciao and thanks a lot,

  Schoepp
