Subject: multiple --name parameters with non-file engine?
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2014 19:42:30 -0500	[thread overview]

Hi Guys,

I'm using the librbd engine and trying to determine what exactly happens 
when multiple --name parameters are passed.  Primarily, I'm wondering if 
each fio process ends up writing to the same blocks on the rbd volume 
during sequential writes.  Looking at the code, I see a note that we 
pretend to deal with files even if the engine doesn't understand the 
concept of files:

https://github.com/axboe/fio/blob/master/engines/rbd.c#L405
https://github.com/axboe/fio/blob/master/filesetup.c#L1239

I'm not seeing anything (might be missing it) in the rbd engine or there 
that would partition the volume based on the process though.  Am I 
missing anything?

Thanks,
Mark
