Why Are Disk Error Logs Printed After a Disk Attached to an ECS Is Formatted with the ext4 File System?
Symptom
When a VBD disk is attached to an ECS and the partition is in ext4 format, the following log may be displayed on the console:
blk_update_request: operation not supported error, dev vdb, sector 826298624 op 0x9:(WRITE_ZEROES) flags 0x800 phys_seg 0 prio class 0
Involved OSs: Ubuntu 20.04, CentOS 8.0, CentOS 8.1, and other ECSs whose kernel versions are 4.18 or later
Root Cause
VBD disks do not support the advanced SCSI command WRITE_ZEROES.
If the ECS OS kernel version is 4.18 or later and the disk partition is formatted with the ext4 file system, the WRITE_ZEROES command is delivered. The system does not support the command and prints a log, which has no impact on the ECS performance and you can ignore it.
