Hello,
I'm starting evaluating usage of fio <https://github.com/axboe/fio>.
My goal is to benchmark different storage device types, e.g. SSD and
shared storage, that is close to the I/O workload generated by the
"real" application: Hana DB.
But before defining this "application related benchmark" I would run a
generic benchmark first that gives an idea of the IO performance of the
relevant storage device; this generic benchmark is using options that
are well known to deliver meaningful results with an acceptable (short)
runtime.
The idea behind this strategy is:
If the generic benchmark already indicates poor IO performance, there's
no need to execute another benchmark that simulates the "real" application.
Could you please share some information of this generic benchmark(s) for
devices SSD, RAID and NFS share (e.g. NetApp, EMC)?

Thomas
