I/O Meter

[Scott Frye_1]

Can anyone help me find a I/O Meter that works with HP-UX. I'm running 11.0 and 11.i. We use iometer on our NT machines and I would like to find an equivelant for the HP Machines.

Thanks

you can use commands like sar -u, sar -d iostat etc and filter out what you need.

Yes, but we are wanting to customize a packet based on work load.

customize a packet?

Could you be more specific here please. What parameters/values are you particularly interested in?

Maybe you are looking for some like iozone offers. www.iozone.org

Thanks.

We want to simulate x number of users with y amount of traffic to our SAN. We are interested in write speeds of drive (locally attached, ATA SAN, and FC SAN). Also interested in the line speed.

You could use iozone then also you could use measureware or get HP consulting engaged who can help define performance and throughputs through these various channels and help you scale them too.
