Certainly not!
Here at JINR we have more than 50 servers with about 2PB
used space serviced by XFS. All data are critical for
LHC experiments. Quite a few servers run for about a 5 years
till now. Just a few files were lost due to damn 3-ware
destroyed own DCB.
The latest incident with xfs+nfs is not the xfs problem too.
