Sure it  is.
Has any body else been able to reproduce this problem?
What version of sheep are you running?

Now I'm curious about object cache failover. What happen if volume with

I'm also curious.
I think it's not handled as of now.
It would be good that, in case of I/O error from the cache device, sheep
disables cache (like a node md unplug).

They shouldn't, but this depends on your qemu version.
Qemu supports auto-reconnect. As soon as sheep daemon is available again,
the vm will issue their I/O requests.
