This part is mentioned, while ext4 do not support copy on write feature which was causing me trouble in this issue

  1. If the user wants to proceed with ext4 he must make sure that he uses use_isolated_db_for_mpt_table=true in hydra.toml

  2. Recommend the user to use XFS file system with Copy on write / reflink feature activated.

Optional: Additional context 问题上下文信息

Here are some logs causing some of the trouble:
