/dev/fioa not showing up in OMV gui

Zitat von Solo0815

nexusone:
Can you please add links to the drivers or commands to install the drivers and utilities. Then we can make a guide out of it.
Thx

Sorry, the drivers aren't publicly distributed. People will need to download the drivers from their FusionIO support account. The installation is trivial.

1) Download your driver and utilities package somewhere
2) Unpack the archive
3) Install the package (e.g. dpkg -i *.deb)

Here is a dump of bash history that might help someone. Adjust the version numbers to match whatever you have of course.

1) apt-get install pciutils
2) apt-get -f install
3) tar xvf fusionio-files-xxxxxxxxxxxx.tar
4) cd fusionio-files-xxxxxxxxxxxx/ioScale/Linux_debian-wheezy/3.2.9/Utilities/
5) dpkg --install *.deb
6) cd fusionio-files-xxxxxxxxxxxx/ioScale/Linux_debian-wheezy/3.2.9/Software\ Binaries/
7) dpkg --install iomemory-vsl-3.2.0-4-amd64_3.2.9.1461-1.0_amd64.deb
Reboot
9) Verify driver is loaded and working using fio-status

Here is a list of the package I installed :

fio-common_3.2.9.1461-1.0_amd64.deb
fio-preinstall_3.2.9.1461-1.0_amd64.deb
fio-sysvinit_3.2.9.1461-1.0_all.deb
fio-util_3.2.9.1461-1.0_amd64.deb
libvsl_3.2.9.1461-1.0_amd64.deb

If you want to update your firmware :

1) cd fusionio-files-xxxxxxxxxxxx/ioScale/Linux_debian-wheezy/3.2.9/Firmware/
2) dpkg --install fio-firmware-fusion_3.2.9.20141008-1_all.deb
3) fio-update-iodrive fusion_3.2.9-20141008.fff
4) Reboot

BTW here is how I am testing it under OMV using tests published by storagereview.
http://www.storagereview.com/f…ester_synthetic_benchmark

I need to get around to booting back into Solaris to get a good comparison. If you see anything wrong with how I'm testing please point it out.

337k Random Read IOPS with 4k blocks isn't bad for off the shelf components.
