IOMeter - Benchmark figures Guide

[glennda]

Just trying to make sense of IOmeter results for an ISCSi San solution. Currently getting from 1 hours "All in one" test but not sure if the results are good.

The Hardware is 6 x 600GB drives in raid 50 with 2 x 1GB network cards to it.

What would people expect I/O and Mb/s written to the disks be roughly?

I'm currently getting 19.4MB/s and around 1600 I/O /sec

I am not using Jumbo Frames at present just Flow Control. Although I'm planning to test to see if it makes a difference.

I've always used the IOMeter template on one of the VMware storage performance threads - VMware Communities: Open unofficial storage performance...

Handy to be able to compare it to what others are getting.
