AIX 5.2 5.3 disk performance exerciser tool
I'm search for a disk exerciser / load tool like iometer, iozone, diskx for IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3
Because of a very bad disk performance on several AIX systems, I need to have a tool which is able to generate a disk load on my local and SAN disks.
Does somebody knows a kind of tool which is able to generate random IO's with a specified block size?
