Method for testing stability and reliability of storage subsystem

Abstract

The invention provides a method for testing the stability and reliability of a storage subsystem. Due to a special application environment and client requirements, a single storage server is generally requested to be provided with more than 12 hard disks, the following test method is made and a test script is formed to perform related test on the reliability and stability of the storage server aiming at the user-related application in order to ensure the reliability and stability for long-term running of the system; because many hard disks are used by the storage server, the product has serious hidden troubles in the stability such as out-of-order magnetic disk, drifting, large-pressure reading and writing environment, disconnection of the magnetic disk, IO error and the like before use of the test method; after use of the test method of the invention, the hidden troubles can be found and solved at the beginning of the development so as to solve similar lot size problem during the product supply and greatly improve the stability and reliability for long-term running of the product.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer application technology, in particular to a test method for the stability and reliability of a storage subsystem. Background technique [0002] Because the storage server uses many hard disks, before using this test method, there are many hidden dangers in the product's stability, such as: disk disorder, drift, under high pressure reading and writing environment, disk disconnection, IO error, etc. There is no good solution. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a testing method for the stability and reliability of the storage subsystem. [0004] The purpose of the present invention is achieved in the following manner, and concrete test steps are as follows: [0005] 1) Disk sequence verification test: Write a hard disk sequence positioning script under the linux system to realize the sequential intermittent reading and writing of the hard disk configured b...
