Subject: Simulating faulty disk
Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2011 21:18:57 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E9F9321.8090704@cs.utah.edu> (raw)

Hi,

I'm trying to simulate a faulty disk behavior on linux. Basically, I 
want to inject various disk failure patterns
such as medium errors, unresponsive disk etc.

What is the best way to go about it. I heard about scsi_debug driver but 
it can only simulate medium
errors on fixed sector 0x1234. Also, scsi fault injection using 
Systemtap seems to be a user space tool
limited to files.

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Yathi
