So, when (if?) you notice that the transfer has failed with a timeout, do you still consider your work was done quicker?
- JackSlateur 3y agoThere is no timeout possible for IO cache If you are thinking of something like a HTTP download, the transfer has to be done anyway (and I must wait for it). However, I do not need that data to be fully written to the (potentially busy) local device
- Rygian 3y agoMy initial comment was about a simple 'cp' copy of a large file from local storage to an NFS mount. It times out, 'cp' exits in error, and my file is not transferred. I can reproduce this at will. I think I should report it as a linux kernel bug, to be honest.
