Fio-status Tool

Please note that this article / this category refers either on older software / hardware components or is no longer maintained for other reasons. This page is no longer updated and is purely for reference purposes still here in the archive available.

With the fio-status tool you can display a wealth of information for a Fusion-io ioDrive Show. Here we will illustrate some output examples.

fio-status

Following is a fio-status output display without additional parameters:
