But VM metrics shows in this time:

### versions

It would be great if this metric could be fixed.

Research direction

Reproduce the fio test against Apache CloudStack 4.19.3 with Linstor 1.31.3 on Ubuntu 24.04.2, then compare the fio results with the VM IOPS metrics over the same interval. Trace the metric calculation from the VM metrics entry point; done means the reported IOPS match the observed storage results.
