[lustre-discuss] What's your favorite distributed filesystem benchmark?

[Vinayak.Kamath]

Greetings,
Our team in the process of setting up an HPC system. We’re evaluating several distributed file systems(DFS), including Lustre.
This is new territory for us and we’ve been learning a lot as we go.

Those of you who have been breathing file system for years – are fio and ior good tools to benchmark a DFS? What are some common pitfalls to avoid while comparing filesystems?
I suppose both these questions are complex topics worth writing papers and books on. Are there any good references that you can suggest?

Thanks,
Vinayak
