Hi Stefan,


thank you for your time.



"temporary write through" does not seem to be a legit parameter.



However write through is already set:



root@proxmox61:~# echo "temporary write through" > 
/sys/block/sdb/device/scsi_disk/*/cache_type
root@proxmox61:~# cat /sys/block/sdb/device/scsi_disk/2\:0\:0\:0/cache_type
write through



is that, what you meant?



Thank you.



KR



Stefan

this has something todo with the firmware and how the manufacturer
handles syncs / flushes.

Intel just ignores sync / flush commands for drives which have a
capacitor. Samsung does not.

The problem is that Ceph sends a lot of flush commands which slows down
drives without capacitor.

You can make linux to ignore those userspace requests with the following

command:
echo "temporary write through" >
/sys/block/sdX/device/scsi_disk/*/cache_type
