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
