Hi! As I know: C60X = SAS2 = 3Gbps LS2308 = 6Gbps Onboard SATA3 = 6Gbps (usually only 2 ports) Onboard SATA2 = 3Gbps (4-6 ports) We use Intel S2600 motherboards and R2224GZ4 platforms in our Hammer evaluation instance. C60X connected to 4-drive 2.5 bay: 2 small SAS drives for OS. 2xS3700 200Gb SSDs for journals mounted on internal bays (on the plastic airflow cage) and connected to SATA3 ports. Remaining 20x2.5 front drive bays connected to integrated RMS25CB080 raid (IR mode, LSI2208) and promoted as single-drive RAID0 OSDs (SAS 10k drives).

Those writes are synchronous and tested with fio —direct=1 —sync=1 This seems abysmal and I have no idea what is causing that. There’s no (?) utility, and no settings for the HBA when in IT target/initiator mode that I know of, write cache is enabled (disabling makes no difference). I am seeing this on all hosts that have this card, with different (17/19) firmwares, with different drives - only commonality is mpt2sas driver that is the same everywhere, and the brand of SSDs - but those SSDs perform much better when put in a different HBA. Has anybody seen this? Real workloads seem to be unaffected so far, but it could quickly become a bottleneck once we upgrade to Giant.
