iSCSI storage

iSCSI storage measures the following performance characteristics of the iSCSI Target or the inline Switch(s) network.

  • Maximum IOps

  • Maximum Throughput

The following parameters are present here:

  • ioblocksize: A list of values that correspond to the IO command's "iSCSI Per Command Transfer Length", meaning how much data a read or write carry as payload. The format is : <integer number greater than 0> (B,KB,MB,GB,TB) ex: 512KB, 2MB etc

  • readpercentage: Alist of values that defines how much of the traffic corresponds to read commands. Example: A value of 20 will indicate 20% reads and 80% writes.

  • randompercentage: a list of values that defines how much of the traffic corresponds to Random IO the rest being Sequential IO. Example: A value of 10 will indicate 10% Random IO and 90% Sequential IO.
