Hi, One more fix in the latest HowTo - the last 2 lines are redundant: verify_backlog=int Fio will normally verify the written contents of a job that utilizes verify once that job has completed. In other words, everything is written then everything is read back and verified. You may want to verify continually instead for a variety of reasons. Fio stores the meta data associated with an IO block in memory, so for large verify workloads, quite a bit of memory would be used up holding this meta data. If this option is enabled, fio will write only N blocks before verifying these blocks. will verify the previously written blocks before continuing to write new ones.
