While trying to understand why a vm connected to freenas using iscsi was having high write wait times i noticed that the slog volume was not being used as one can see in the following images:
Pool operations
SLOG operations
After reading information on this forum on how slog works, i though it would always be used as a write cache but looks like that is not happening according to those graphs.
Have i misunderstood something on how SLOG should work? Or why the slog drive is not being used?
Thanks!
