Running Fio under AIX 7

["Georg Schönberger" <gschoenberger@thomas-krenn.com>]

Hi fio users,

I am trying to run Fio under AIX 7 - according to the documentation there shouldn't be any problem with it.
For now I am getting the following error, do you have any idea what's the problem here (filesystem jfs/jfs2)?

Thanks for you help, Georg
