Using fio with adjusted parameters for use case "DB"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I want to benchmark different storage devices with an I/O workload generated by the "real" application: DB.

A typcial command could be:
fio --name=random-writers --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=4 --rw=randwrite --bs=1024 --direct=1 --size=64m --numjobs=2 runtime=120s

The question is regarding parameters size and runtime:
- What value should be used for size? Should this be the same as allocated disk space by DB data files? Or just a (reasonable) portion of this? DB data files could be up to n TB. - Is it advisable to use runtime? If yes, would this somehow contradict to size, means if I use a larger size, then runtime is obviously longer.


Regards
Thomas
