replay_no_stall=int When replaying I/O with read_iolog the default behavior
is to attempt to respect the time stamps within the log and
- replay them with the appropriate delay between IOPS. By
+ replay them with the appropriate delay between IOPS. By
setting this variable fio will not respect the timestamps and
attempt to replay them as fast as possible while still
- respecting ordering. The result is the same I/O pattern to a
+ respecting ordering. The result is the same I/O pattern to a
given device, but different timings.
replay_redirect=str While replaying I/O patterns using read_iolog the
mapping. Replay_redirect causes all IOPS to be replayed onto
the single specified device regardless of the device it was
recorded from. i.e. replay_redirect=/dev/sdc would cause all
- IO in the blktrace to be replayed onto /dev/sdc. This means
- multiple devices will be replayed onto a single, if the trace
- contains multiple devices. If you want multiple devices to be
- replayed concurrently to multiple redirected devices you must
- blkparse your trace into separate traces and replay them with
- independent fio invocations. Unfortuantely this also breaks
- the strict time ordering between multiple device accesses.
