4 Device-Mapper's "delay" target delays reads and/or writes
5 and maps them to different devices.
8 <device> <offset> <delay> [<write_device> <write_offset> <write_delay>]
10 With separate write parameters, the first set is only used for reads.
11 Offsets are specified in sectors.
12 Delays are specified in milliseconds.

24 # Create device delaying only write operation for 500ms and
25 # splitting reads and writes to different devices $1 $2
