We installed yesterday 3.10.0-693.17.1.el7. I know that CentOS and RedHat
keep old stable kernel version and backport important stuff: do you think that
upgrading to a more recent kernel (4 and above) would be better,
even if less stable?

How could we check our storage stack and see if it is the one to blame?

Thanks, best regards
