Subject: [Lustre-devel] max_sectors_kb change doesn't help

Hi,

in /proc/fs/lustre/obdfilter/*/brw_stats I found that the disk I/O is done
in 512K pieces. Following the Lustre manual I changed
/sys/block/DEVICE/queue/max_sectors_kb to 1024 but the I/O sizes in Lustre
didn't change.

Is there any place in Lustre where I can enforce 1MB I/Os? What else can I do?
My RAID is connected through an mpt fusion driver and I cannot find any place
where the I/O size is limited to 512KB. In fact, without Lustre I am able to
write with larger I/Os, so I suspect it's not the driver's fault...

Regards,
Erich
