Checking the log for errors
If you enter a configuration that is not valid, the settings will be disabled and an error will be display in the system logs.
Example:
fio-config -p FIO_AFFINITY 5,g0,0xf;6,0xf
In this example, the affinity for device fct6 is set incorrectly, because there is no group or node number before the mask. The following errors appear in the system log:
