Hi,
I am using Iometer tool.I need to print the result of Iometer as
pass or fail with the values.
I don't know how to decide whether Iometer test for particular access
specification is passed or not (i think we have to check error coun.I
am not sure)
Please specify the conditions for Iometer test result to be
interpreted as pass or fail

Regards,
Mani

Whenever you use IOmeter, you have the option to print to a file. The
file contains all of the statistics of each run. If you run multiple
tests, the results are simply appended to this file. You can open this
file in excel because it is in a csv format.

As far as pass or fail? You need to know what you're looking for.
IOmeter is a performance tool and does not look at any data integrity
issues. Also, this tool only writes zeros. There are many things that
can happen underneath IOmeter and a failure would never show up:

1. Path between initiator/target is closed/reopened: IOmeter would
never catch this.

2. IOmeter would never catch any integrity errors.

IOmeter is a good performance tool and that is it.

Hope this helps.
