Hi, I've been using blktrace with fio by doing the following on Fedora 20 with a git version of fio (fio-2.1.5-16-g81fa): blktrace -d /dev/sdd blkparse sdd -O -d sdd.dump fio --read_iolog=sdd.dump --ioengine=libaio --name=replay Using iowatcher I can see that fio is hitting the same blocks that the blktrace recorded. It is also worth noting that certain options like rate, rate_iops and bs do not seem to affect replay jobs. Additionally, fio does not seem able to replay a job with the same timings that it is was recorded with (it also seems to do so faster) whereas btreplay has no issue doing this (even reproducing similar depths to the original job). The one minor issue that I see is this: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=40549MB, aggrb=30919KB/s, minb=30919KB/s, maxb=30919KB/s, mint=1342918msec, maxt=1342918msec WRITE: io=40562MB, aggrb=30929KB/s, minb=30929KB/s, maxb=30929KB/s, mint=1342918msec, maxt=1342918msec fio: file hash not empty on exit Why is the file hash not empty on exit? This happens no matter what I do.
