Does anyone know of GOOD CLI driven stress testing tools that are not just benchmarks?
I looked at IOZone and some things like that, but they seem more geared to running up some load and then making pretty graphs. I am interested in actual testing tools that will do things like: * async reads and writes to disk * raw disk I/O * large file I/O * random file chunk I/O I want them to do a LOT of I/O, preferably simultaneously (multi-threaded) and compare written data to expected data, and return pass/fail criteria, not benchmark numbers. I'm more interested in functional testing rather than pure performance testing. So I wanted to see if any of you knew of good filesystem or disk testing tools that would meet the need. Also, tools need to be completely configurable from CLI, and have to be able to target specific block devices or mounted filesystems. I looked at a tool simply called Stress earlier, which does a lost of what I want it to do, but has no obvious way of specifying a device to test against. It's more of a system-wide stress tool rather than a targeted one. Any ideas?
