Embodiment

[0020] A method for automatically testing the HBA card bandwidth under a kind of Linux described in this embodiment can automatically test the HBA interface bandwidth and transmission rate performance of all servers; under the linux operating system, execute instructions cat / proc / partations, fdisk-l, demidecode , df-h, accurately capture the detailed information of hard disks and storage disks, analyze the captured information, distinguish between hard disks and storage disks, and automatically filter out the storage disks connected to each HBA interface according to this type of information, and automatically save all storage disks Mount it under the Linux operating system, and then automatically format all storage disks into a file system format that can maximize the bandwidth BW and transfer rate IOPS, and directly execute the test program.

[0021] In the method for automatically testing the bandwidth of the HBA card under Linux described in this embodiment, the test tool F...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for automatically testing the bandwidth of an HBA card under Linux. Based on the Linux operating system, through a bash script, the system commands cat / proc / partations and fdisk‑l are used to capture all storage disk information inserted into the HBA interface, and automatically Mount and format all storage disks, and use the test tool FIO to automatically test HBA interface bandwidth and transmission rate performance according to the set storage disk test parameters and test block size. This test method is applicable to all processor platforms in the industry at present, and realizes no need for cumbersome environment construction, tool installation, parameter setting, simple, time-saving, automated testing and result storage, and accurate performance index.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer technology, in particular to a method for automatically testing the bandwidth of an HBA card under Linux. Background technique [0002] HBA (Host Bus Adapter) is a host bus adapter, which is a circuit board or integrated circuit adapter that provides input / output (I / O) processing and physical connection between servers and storage devices. Because the HBA offloads the main processor with data storage and retrieval tasks, it can improve server performance. An HBA and its associated disk subsystem are sometimes referred to together as a disk channel. [0003] The host bus adapter (Host Bus Adapter) HBA is used in the storage system to connect the internal bus of the computer and the storage network. The HBA is the physical connection between the internal I / O channels of the server and the I / O channels of the storage system. The most commonly used internal I / O channels of the server are PCI and Sbus, which are communic...
