I looked at IOzone :
Ozone is a filesystem benchmark tool. The benchmark generates and measures a variety of file operations. IOzone has been ported to many machines a nd runs under many operating systems.
IOzone is useful for performing a broad filesystem analysis of a vendors computer platform. The benchmark tests file I/O performance for the following operations: Read, write, re-read, re-write, read backwards, read strided, fread, fwrite, random read, pread, mmap, aio_read, aio_write.
so what would the benchmark indicate, i mean how can we read it. If it indicates high I/O then after mirroring it would be even higher ? right ?

Hi guys!
Could you tell me what's the difference of filesystem of Solaris to filesystem of Windows? I need to compare both.
I have read some over the net but it's so much technical. Could you explain it in a more simpler term? I am new to Solaris. Hope you help me guys.
Thanks! (4 Replies)

mbw(1) General Commands Manual mbw(1)
NAME
mbw - Memory BandWidth benchmark
SYNOPSIS
mbw [options] arraysize_in_MiB
DESCRIPTION
mbw determines available memory bandwidth by copying large arrays of data in memory.
OPTIONS
-q Quiet; suppress informational messages.
-a Suppress printing the average of each test.
-n <number>
Select number of loops per test
-t <number>
Select tests to be run. If no -t parameters are given the default is to run all tests. -t0: memcpy() test, -t1: dumb (b[i]=a[i]
style) test, -t2: memcpy() with arbitrary block size
-b <bytes>
Block size in bytes for -t2.
-h Show quick help.
USAGE
mbw will allocate two arraysize arrays in memory and copy one to the other. Reported 'bandwidth' is the amount of data copied over the
time this operation took.
Obviously mbw needs twice arraysize MiBytes (1024*1024 bytes) of physical memory - you'd better switch off swap or otherwise make sure no
paging occurs. Needless to say that it should not be run on a busy system.
TODO
Multiple thread support. Better configurability, including using getopt() for parsing arguments.
