fio-status

Description

The fio-statuscommand provides detailed information about the specified or all installed IO Accelerators. This utility operates on /dev/fctx devices. The fio-statuscommand must run with root privileges and requires that the driver be loaded. If no driver is loaded, a smaller set of status information is returned.

The fio-statuscommand provides alerts for certain error modes, such as a minimal-mode, read-only mode, and write-reduced mode, describing what is causing the condition.

Syntax

fio-status <device> [options]

where <device> is the name of the device node (/dev/fctx), where x indicates the card number: 0, 1, 2, and so on. For example, /dev/fct0 indicates the first IO Accelerator installed on the system.

If <device> is not specified, the fio-statuscommand displays information for all IO Accelerator devices in the system. If the driver is not loaded, this parameter is ignored.

Options

-a

Reports all available information for each device.

 

 

-e

Shows all errors and warnings for each device. This option is for diagnosing issues, and it

 

hides other information such as format sizes.

-c

Count: Reports only the number of IO Accelerator devices installed.

-d

Shows basic information set plus the total amount of data read and written (lifetime data

 

volumes). This option is not necessary when the -aoption is used.

-fj
