Hello Everyone,
I am a little bit confused with the number of sub-blocks per block-size of 16M in GPFS 5.0.
In the below documentation, it mentions that the number of sub-blocks per block is 16K, but "only for Spectrum Scale RAID"
https://developer.ibm.com/storage/2018/01/11/spectrum-scale-variant-sub-blocks/
However, when i created the filesystem “without” spectrum scale RAID. I still see that the number of sub-blocks per block is 1024.
mmlsfs <filesystem> --subblocks-per-full-block
flag value description
------------------- ------------------------ -----------------------------------
--subblocks-per-full-block 1024 Number of subblocks per full block
So May i know if the sub-blocks per block-size really 16K? or am i missing something?
Regards,
Lohit
