Hi everyone, I am not able to find any good documentation with the use of mpxio on a x86 architecture with clariion storage. I have found a lot of reference to command line that are not available on x86 (like stmsboot...), so I wonder if someone have any documentation of the implementation?
From what I have been told, there is no reason to run stmsboot after
attaching your storage. MPxIO should work out of the box with the Clariion arrays.
One more stuff, I wonder if anyone have also some set of scenario to test the multipathing of mpxio?
We used a combination of bonnie, iozone and filebench to generate I/O when we were testing out our Clariion storage arrays. You can read more about these benchmarking tools here: http://www.cuddletech.com/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=820 To view I/O traffic per path, you can use the iostat "-X" and "-Y" options. You can read more about those here: http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2006/04/10/getting-io-by-path/ Thanks, - Ryan -- UNIX Administrator http://prefetch.net _______________________________________________ storage-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/storage-discuss
