If you were hitting a iscsi issue then you should see something in /var/log/messages from the sdX device and/or the iscsi layer before the FS error messages. You would see something about a DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED or DID_ERROR or DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST. You might also see something about the iscsi replacement/recovery timeout expiring. The iscsiadm session state would also show not logged in. > > Do the counts (iorequest_cnt, iodone_cnt, ioerr_cnt) mean that every > request sent out was successfully completed ? ( iorequest_cnt > == iodone_cnt ) If they are equal then it means everything has been going smoothly and the scsi eh has not had to run. If a command timesout and the scsi eh runs then those values would be different. The iodone_cnt is not incremented in that case. > I would like to know if the response to write is an actual error > response sent by the target or is it a (network) problem related to client. > ioerr_cnt = 0 indicates the iscsi layer has not failed any commands due to something like connection error or due to the target/device sending back a failure. The thing is that it could be non-zero and we could have got check conditions from the device that were just telling us that the device is ready or something informative like that. > Thanks in advance for any tips.
