Hello,
One day our servers farm rebooted unexpectedly (power fail happened) and on centos 6.3 with up2date kernel we lost few hundred files (which probably was opened for reading, NOT writing) on XFS.
Unexpected power lost follow to situation when some files get a zero size.
what sort of physical storage? are you sure it is write-safe ? write-back caches without battery backup are often a cause of data loss.
