Hi

Thanks for your clarification ... based on my current parameters in parv
file

Pages Per Block         = 64
Blocks Per Plane        = 2048
Planes Per Element    = 8
Page Size                  = 8 sectors = 4 KB
So ... Pages Per Single Element = 1 (Element) * 8 (planes) * 2048 (Blocks) *
64 (Pages) = 1048576 Pages

Each Page is 8 Sectors ---> which means the MAX Addressable Sector = 1048576
* 8 = 8388608 - 1 = 0 .. 8388607 Sectors

NOW the Important issue the the MAX VALID (Address, Req Size) Combination
which is as follows ...

5265.313 0 8388599 8  0    ( 8388607 - 8 = 8388599) is the MAX Valid I/O
Trace (Address, Req Size) Combination -- TESTED with disksim successfully


5265.313 0 8388600 8  0   will generate ERROR with disksim cause it exceeds
the MAX (Address, Req Size)
unexpected request location: devno 0, blkno 8388600, bcount 8

Assertion failed:
simtime     = 5265.313000
totalreqs     = 1
disksim: disksim_logorg.c:763: logorg_maprequest: Assertion `logorgno != -1'
failed.



The same concept is applicable if we change the Req size to 16

5265.313 0 8388591 16  0   work Successfully

5265.313 0 8388592 16  0   Error !! ..
unexpected request location: devno 0, blkno 8388592, bcount 16

Assertion failed:
simtime     = 5265.313000
totalreqs     = 1
disksim: disksim_logorg.c:763: logorg_maprequest: Assertion `logorgno != -1'
failed.

Final observation
The MAX VALID (Address, Req Size)  will increase with an additional element
added in the parv file
