“echo 1 > /sys/block/sdX/device/delete” on all disks except predetermined listSSD seems full, but file system says otherwise
Is it a problem when the system believes a device to be rotational, but it is SSD really? The system is:
- Ubuntu 18.04
- KVM virtualized
- I have /dev/vda as "local", /dev/vdb as "isilon"; I'm interested primarily in vda (see background below)
- The provider says "[/dev/vda is] a SSD raid 6 array within the HV"
cat /sys/block/vd?/queue/rotational
1
1lsblk -d -o name,rota
NAME ROTA
sr0 1
vda 1
vdb 1it's fast (dd random test according to https://serverfault.com/questions/551453/how-do-i-verify-that-my-hosting-provider-gave-me-ssds/551495#551495; takes 1.379s; However, it's emtpy still)
- driver: virtio_blk
Is this configured correctly? Should I worry once there's data, and Elasticsearch running on /dev/vda (or /dev/vdb)?
Background: I'm installing elsasticsearch and was checking if the SSD scheduler is correct, but as the system doesn't see the disks as SSD, it comes back with
cat /sys/block/vda/queue/scheduler
[none]
hard-disk kvm ssd

Depending on the services that require to use that disk there can be some impact. I'm familiar with this in ceph context on HP servers, where the OSD metadata depends on the correct configuration. We use a custom udev rule with a small script that sets the rotational flag correctly. If you encounter any issues in the present configuration I would suggest to do so, too.

Use virtio-scsi, not virtio-blk.
