fio is a tool that will spawn a number of threads or processes doing a
|
|
|
|
|
particular type of io action as specified by the user. fio takes a
|
|
|
|
|
number of global parameters, each inherited by the thread unless
|
|
|
|
|
otherwise parameters given to them overriding that setting is given.
|
|
|
|
|
The typical use of fio is to write a job file matching the io load
|
|
|
|
|
one wants to simulate.
