fio-pci-check
Description
Checks for errors on the PCI bus tree, specifically for IO Accelerators. This utility displays the current status of
each IO Accelerator. It also prints the standard PCI Express error information and resets the state.
It is normal to see a few errors (perhaps as many as five) when fio-pci-check is initially run. Subsequent
runs should reveal only one or two errors during several hours of operation.
The IO Accelerator driver must be loaded to run this utility. Some PCI errors cannot be reset in your
Windows® operating system.

fio-status
Description
The fio-status command provides detailed information about the specified or all installed IO
Accelerators, either fctx or fiox devices. The fio-status command must run with root privileges and
requires that the driver be loaded. If it finds no device, it displays an index number instead.
fio-status provides alerts for certain error modes, such as a minimal-mode, read-only mode, and
write-reduced mode, describing what is causing the condition.
Syntax
fio-status [
where
/dev/fctx, where x indicates the PCIe bus number where you installed the IO Accelerator. For example,
the name /dev/fct4 refers to the IO Accelerator device installed in PCIe Bus 4 in your Windows®
operating system. To view this bus number, use the IO Accelerator Management Tool or fio-status.
If you do not specify a name, fio-status displays information on all installed IO Accelerators. If the IO
Accelerator is not loaded, this parameter is ignored.
