- Firsty, you should download vdbench to oracle web site. You can see the name vdbench50406.zip like this.
- And you have to install java 8,because vdbench use Java8.Its required.
- Put java path to your root profile.
vi .profile export PATH=/usr/java8_64/jre/bin:$PATH:/usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin:/opt/freeware/bin :wq
check your path
root@yedekdonus:/home/root # which java /usr/java8_64/jre/bin/java
- Give 40 raw disk of size 50GB
- set disk parameters
lspv |grep -v rootvg |grep None |awk '{print $1}'|while read a
do
chdev -l $a -a queue_depth=32 -a reserve_policy=no_reserve
chdev -l $a -a max_transfer='0x200000'
done
- set fiber card parameters.
lsdev -Ccadapter|grep fcs|while read a oth do chdev -l $a -a max_xfer_size=0x200000 chdev -l $a -a num_cmd_elems=2048 done lsdev -C|grep fscsi|while read a oth do chdev -l $a -a dyntrk=yes -a fc_err_recov=fast_fail done
- Create your vdbench parameter file

- We will create a script to run vdbench tool.I run each test 300 sec with %70 read -8k Blocks-%30 cache hit and 16-20-32 process.

done
done

done
chmod +x test_disk_vdbench.sh ==> Execute permission
- run your script
sh test_disk_vdbench.sh
you can see some outputs like this below on your directory.I did some tests.

I got 160K-170K IOPS. And response time average 3-4 ms. Response time is very important for OLTP Databases.But I cant use my fiber cards very well because CPU bottleneck.I have 12 Power7 CPU. If I have 18-20 CPU, I will get 200K average IOP and average 2 ms response time.
