It will work OK with norandommap for your workload. If you have mixed block sizes, then you could run into verification failures if smaller blocks overwrite parts of a bigger verification piece. With pattern verification and a pattern size set to the smallest blocksize that should work too, though. If you see the 'V', it's definitely verifying. The comment on norandommap refers to seeing spurious verification failures, not that it wont verify at all. Your job file should be fine. -- Jens Axboe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe fio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
