I see. That does seem fairly likely. At least, there's no other
obvious candidate for the cause.

I used to work on a customer-facing support team for the ClusterLabs
suite, and we received a fair number of cases where bizarre issues
(such as hangs and access errors) were apparently caused by an
antivirus. In those cases, all other usual lines of investigation were
exhausted, and when we asked the customer to disable their AV, the
issue disappeared. This happened with several different AV products.

I can't say with any certainty that the AV is causing your issue, and
I know it's frustrating that you won't know whether any given
intervention worked, since this only happens once every few months.

You may want to either exclude certain files from the scan, or write a
short script to place the cluster in maintenance mode before the scan
and take it out of maintenance after the scan is complete.

That also sounds like a good plan to confirm the cause :) It might
take a while to find out though.
