Hi
Am working with a SW account manager on a trial and as part of some of my testing, am looking to disable the 2GB write-back cache that i setup initially.
We are running two Supermicro E200-8Ds with 64GB in each, both with Intel NVME drives, and 10GB NICs for Sync and iSCSI/vMotion. The vSphere VSAN is then hosting a 1.2TB thick provision eager zerod disk presented to vSphere for storage.
Most of our current tests have performed well overall, but we have seen a small number of WRITE DELAY errors (10sec approx) in a small number of cases. I am looking to disable the cache to see if it makes any difference.
I see the documentation on https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... -l1-cache/ and how to disable the L1 cache, but this appears to be specific to Windows hosted vSAN. Unsure if the process is the same in the Linux environment, the service to stop before altering the file etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
