I'm trying to benchmark a RAID-6 server using FFSB and the result is really unstable to detect the pattern.
Scenario -1:
Block-size - 65536 (64KB)
Number of threads - 10
Number of files - 10
Min and Max filesize - 400m
Read size - 400m
Direct IO - on
Random-read=off
Read throughput - 420MB/s (This is expected)
Scenario - 2:
Block-size - 65537 (64KB + 1 Byte)
Number of threads - 10
Number of files - 10
Min and Max filesize - 400m
Read size - 400m
Direct IO - on
Random-read=off
Dear all,
We are facing prolem when we are going to mount AIX filesystem, the system returned the following error
0506-307The AFopen call failed
: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
But when we ls filesystems in the /etc/ directory it show
-rw-r--r-- 0 root ... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I wanted to find out that in my database server which filesystems are shared storage and which filesystems are local. Like when I use df -k, it shows "filesystem" and "mounted on" but I want to know which one is shared and which one is local.
Please tell me the commands which I can run... (2 Replies)
Hi,
Is there a precompiled binary for Solaris 8 available?
I need to bench mark our Oracle server,
as we are upgrading from SFv880 to SFv890.
Both are fully loaded.
I can't find a sun machine that I can compile the software on.
Tks

I work in a computer company which sells computer configurations and parts of them. And I want to give a choice to customers. If they want to buy a PC with Linux installed, not Windows. But I find difficult to test the Graphic Cards in Linux OS. I have searched the web and I didn't found any... (2 Replies)

DESCRIPTION
seivot benchmarks a backup application. It has been written primarily for obnam(1), but could be extended for other backup applications.
seivot generates some live data using genbackupdata(1), and then runs the backup application. It then generates some more live data, and
runs a second backup generation, etc. It stores the measurements in an output file. See seivots-summary(1) for a tool to show data from
such files in a tabular fashion. (seivot does not itself show the tabular data, because one is rarely interested in the output from just
one run, and instead wants to contrast it with other runs).
OPTIONS --benchmark-fsck
benchmark fsck?
--config=FILE
add FILE to config files
--description=TEXT
free-form description of this backup run
--drop-caches
clear Linux kernel cache before running commands (will ask for sudo pasword
--dump-config
write out the entire current configuration
--dump-memory-profile=METHOD
make memory profiling dumps using METHOD, which is one of: none, simple, meliae, or heapy (default: simple)
--dump-setting-names
write out all names of settings and quit
--encrypt-with=KEYID
encrypt backups with KEYID
--file-size=SIZE
size of files to create
--generate-manpage=TEMPLATE
fill in manual page TEMPLATE
--generations=COUNT
total number of generations to measure (5)
-h, --help
show this help message and exit
--incremental-data=SIZE
add SIZE live data for additional generations (1024)
--initial-data=SIZE
size of initial live data (1024)
--larch-branch=LARCH-BRANCH
bzr branch from which to use larch (default is installed larch)
--list-config-files
list all possible config files
--log=FILE
write log entries to FILE (default is to not write log files at all); use "syslog" to log to system log, or "none" to disable log-
ging
--log-keep=N
keep last N logs (10)
--log-level=LEVEL
log at LEVEL, one of debug, info, warning, error, critical, fatal (default: debug)

clear list of configuration files to read
--obnam-branch=OBNAM-BRANCH
bzr branch from which to run obnam (default is installed obnam)
--obnam-config=FILE
use FILE as an Obnam configuration file
--obnam-profile=NAMEPATTERN
store Python profiling output in files named after NAMEPATTERN (no profiling, unless set); %(foo)s in pattern gets filled in, where
foo is op (for backup/restore/etc), gen, or order (cumulative/time)
--output=FILE
write output to FILE, instead of standard output
--profile-name=PROFILE-NAME
name of backup use-case profile name (for documentation purposes only)
--program=PROGRAM
program to benchmark (obnam)
--sftp-delay=SFTP-DELAY
add an artificial delay (in milliseconds) to all SFTP transfers
--use-existing=DIR
