Storage-Benchmarks – the good, the bad and the ugly

Wo und warum sind Storage-Benchmarks manchmal mehr und manchmal weniger sinnvoll? Wir schauen dazu insbesondere den verschiedenen Benchmarks des Storage Performance Council etwas genauer auf die Finger: Was wird da eigentlich gemessen, kann ich das auch bei mir im Rechenzentrum messen, und was ist eigentlich »$/SPC-1 KIOPS« oder »SPC-2 MBPS«?

 Aussagekraft, Herausforderungen, I/O-Stack, Tools ‣ Storage

    Performance Council

  3. Warum überhaupt Benchmarks? ‣ Vergleichbarkeit von Komponenten, Geräten, Systemen ‣

    Auswahlkriterium bei Beschaffung ‣ Festlegen von SLAs
 Baselining
  4. Herausforderungen @ Benchmarks (generell) ‣ synthetische Last vs. reale Last


    ➛ Benchmarks müssen vergleichbar sein
 ➛ Lastverhalten in RZs indivuell stark unterschiedlich ‣ Man kann das Falsche messen oder das falsche messen wollen. ‣ Man kann das falsche Ergebnis schlussfolgern. ‣ Man kann Fehler ignorieren. ‣ Bugs in der Benchmark-Software
 ➛ selber schreiben i. d. R. keine Option, weil sehr (zeit)aufwendig. ‣ »Active Benchmarking«
 Brendan Gregg, http://www.brendangregg.com/activebenchmarking.html »Wer misst, misst Mist« — überlieferte Ingenieursweisheit
  5. I/O-Stack (1-3) — simple, komplex, Cloud Cloud: something totally different

  8. Warum kein dd? ‣ dd(1) ➛ disk dump ‣ dd

    if=<input_file> of=<output_file> bs=<blocksize>
 ➛ sequential only
 ➛ genau ein Stream mit genau einer Blocksize ‣ if=/dev/zero ➛ liefert Strom von Nullen
 ➛ lässt sich hervorragend cachen
 ➛ lässt sich hervorragend komprimieren
 ➛ lässt sich hervorragend deduplizieren ‣ if=/dev/random oder /dev/urandom
 ➛ Bottleneck ist häufig CPU

  24. SPC-1/2 Energy Extension ‣ kompletter Messzyklus ≥ 3 Tage ‣

    Temperaturmessung
 ➛ am Anfang der Idle-Tests
 ➛ während letzter Minute Last-Test ‣ RMS ≙ quadratischer Mittelwert
  25. SPC — Pricing (im Report) ‣ Hardware, Software, zusätzlich erforderliche

    Komponenten für
 Storage-Funktionalität, 3 Jahre Support, alle anfallenden Gebühren (Steuern, Zoll u. ä.) ‣ ausgenommen: HW für Benchmark-Setup ohne Storage-Funktion
 ➛ Server, die Workload erzeugen
 ➛ evtl. HBAs, FC-Switches, Verkabelung
 ➛ Fracht/Verpackung ‣ Projektpreise sind nicht erlaubt (»individually negotiated«)
 ➛ Wie aussagekräftig ist dann noch $/IOPS oder $/MBPS? ‣ Support ≙ 4h Response Time + 4h Vor-Ort-Service
 ➛ Vor-Ort = Ersatzteil und/oder Techniker
  26. Agenda ‣ Warum überhaupt Benchmarks?
 Aussagekraft, Herausforderungen, I/O-Stack, Tools ‣

    Storage Performance Council
 SPC-1, SPC-2, Industriestandard, Terminologie, Reports ‣Und was heißt das jetzt für’s Tagesgeschäft?
 Benchmarks selber programmieren?
 Benchmarks für die Beschaffung?
 Glaskugel
  27. SPC-1/2 selber bauen? ‣ ja, geht, und ist prinzipiell auch

    erlaubt
 ➛ aufwendig in der Entwicklung
 ➛ muss für offizielle Benchmarks von einem Auditor abgenommen werden $ cat spc1-preflight.vdbench *** *** vdbench Parameterfile to emulate SPC-1 workload *** ** storage definitions ** sd=asu11,lun=/dev/rdsk/c25t2100000E1E19FB51d0s2 sd=asu12,lun=/dev/rdsk/c25t2100000E1E19FB51d13s2 sd=asu21,lun=/dev/rdsk/c26t2100000E1E19F170d32s2 sd=asu22,lun=/dev/rdsk/c26t2100000E1E19F240d68s2 sd=asu31,lun=/dev/rdsk/c27t2100000E1E19F5A1d29s2 sd=asu32,lun=/dev/rdsk/c27t2100000E1E19FB71d39s2 sd=asu41,lun=/dev/rdsk/c28t2100000E1E19F1B1d21s2 sd=asu42,lun=/dev/rdsk/c28t2100000E1E19F261d8s2 ** workload definitions ** wd=asu111,sd=asu11,rdpct=50,xfersize=4k,skew=1 wd=asu112,sd=asu11,rdpct=50,xfersize=4k,skew=6,range=(15,20) wd=asu113,sd=asu11,rdpct=100,xfersize=(8k,40,16k,24,32k,20,64k,8,128k,8),skew=2,range=(40,50) wd=asu114,sd=asu11,rdpct=50,xfersize=4k,skew=5,range=(70,75) wd=asu121,sd=asu12,rdpct=30,xfersize=4k,skew=1 wd=asu122,sd=asu12,rdpct=30,xfersize=4k,skew=2,range=(47,52) wd=asu123,sd=asu12,rdpct=100,xfersize=(8k,40,16k,24,32k,20,64k,8,128k,8),skew=1,range=(40,50) wd=asu131,sd=asu13,rdpct=0,xfersize=(8k,40,16k,24,32k,20,64k,8,128k,8),skew=7,range=(35,65) … ** run definition (raw I/O) ** rd=spc1emu,wd=(asu111,asu112,asu113,asu114,asu121,…,),iorate=max,elapsed=300
  28. Benchmarks in der Storage-Beschaffung? ‣ Wie genau kennen Sie die

    im Unternehmen benötigten
 ➛ IOPS und MBPS,
 ➛ als Funktion der I/O-Blocksize,
 ➛ mit der Verteilung nach read/write? 㱺 Wie sind dann SPC-Werte zu bewerten? ‣ keine allgemeingültigen IOPS-Muster
 ➛ »Fingerprint« des Unternehmens, abhängig von vielen Faktoren/Randbedingungen ‣ Herstellerdarstellung immer »so große Zahl als wie gehen tut«
 ➛ Anpassen der Benchmark-Optionen ‣ Lösungen?
 ➛ umfangreicher, lange laufender PoC (aufwendig)
 ➛ flexibles, in alle Richtungen skalierbares Storage (»Wollmilchsau«)
  29. Glaskugel — Was bringt die Zukunft? ‣ Cloud Storage (public

    und private)
 ➛ viel Software involviert, mehrere Abstraktionslayer
 ➛ COSbench ‣ Solid State Memory (NAND Flash, Optane u. a.)
 ➛ keine »bremsende« Mechanik mehr
 ➛ Applikations-Debugging kann Thema werden, wenn plötzlich
 Bottleneck ≠ Storage wird (z. B. komplexe oder »kaputte« SQL Queries) Bootlenecks verschieben sich nur durch das System, verschwinden aber nicht.
