Benchmark Description
This benchmark is designed to measure aggregated server performance in consolidation scenario: where different apps are running at the same time in separate virtual machines or operating system containers.
Implementation
We use standard industrial benchmark: vConsolidate. It was developed by Intel in cooperation with other vendors. vConsolidate measures performance from Java, Web and Db VMs running concurrently (we excluded Mail VM as it was MS Windows version only). Each set of such three VMs is called CSU - Consolidation Stack Unit. Performance metric is geomean from throughput of each workload type: transactions/sec for Db, requests/sec for Web and java operations/sec for Java.
Testbed Configuration
Server: 4xHexCore Intel Xeon (2.66 GHz), 64 GB RAM, HP MSA1500 SAN Storage, 8 SATA (7200 RPM) Disks in RAID0
Client: 4xHexCore Intel Xeon (2.136 GHz), 32 GB RAM
Network: Gbit direct server<>client connection
Virtualization Software: XenServer5.6fp1, OpenVZ (RH5) 2.6.18-028stab085.3, OpenVZ (RH6) 2.6.32-042test006.1.x86_64
Guest OS: Centos 5.5 x86_64
Software and Tunings:
- Firewall was turned off
- All other tunings were left at default values
