No Disk IO graphs

[Harun]

Hi!

Empty graph when using scsi device. When I use other devices (ide, sata, virtio), there is no problem. The problem is in versions 3.x, 4.x, 5.x. Anyone having a similar problem? Any potential solutions?

SCSI disk:


VIRTIO disk:

The problem exists only in the configuration VIRTIO-SCSI + ZFS over ISCSI.

In the file /usr/share/perl5/PVE/QemuServer.pm find this:
if($path =~ m/^iscsi\:\/\//){
$devicetype = 'generic';
}
and change it to this
if($path =~ m/^iscsi\:\/\//){
$devicetype = 'block';
}
After this change:
systemctl restart pvedaemon.service
systemctl restart pveproxy.service
systemctl restart pvestatd.service

I have made this change for several years now whenever the package qemu-server is updated.

Thank! Great, it works. Why developers will not fix it?

Ask the devs. I have mentioned it a couple of times.

Do you have any bugreport for this?

we do have a property "scsiblock" to force pass through to use block instead of generic (https://git.proxmox.com/?p=qemu-ser...15e865883b5b47d0c48f82fa6167179;hb=HEAD#l1647) - maybe you could provide a patch to allow the same for iscsi?
