Where are you experiencing the behavior?  What environment?

LAB environment.

When does the behavior occur? Frequently?  Repeatedly?   At certain times?

It seems to occur when the storage infra is more busy.

What information can you provide around timeframes and urgency?

It seems to occur between midnight and 1 a.m.

We already have this change in rhel-7.4

Comment 4 Lukáš Nykrýn 2016-11-28 13:18:31 UTC

Does this matches criterias for z-stream? Users can easily change those values via drop-ins.
