salt.modules.sysbench¶

The 'sysbench' module is used to analyze the performance of the minions, right from the master! It measures various system parameters such as CPU, Memory, File I/O, Threads and Mutex.

salt.modules.sysbench.cpu()¶

Tests for the CPU performance of minions.

CLI Examples:

salt '*' sysbench.cpu

salt.modules.sysbench.fileio()¶

This tests for the file read and write operations Various modes of operations are

• sequential write
• sequential rewrite
• sequential read
• random read
• random write
• random read and write

The test works with 32 files with each file being 1Gb in size The test consumes a lot of time. Be patient!

CLI Examples:

salt '*' sysbench.fileio

salt.modules.sysbench.memory()¶

This tests the memory for read and write operations.

CLI Examples:

salt '*' sysbench.memory

salt.modules.sysbench.mutex()¶

Tests the implementation of mutex

CLI Examples:

salt '*' sysbench.mutex

salt.modules.sysbench.ping()¶

salt.modules.sysbench.threads()¶

This tests the performance of the processor's scheduler

CLI Example:

salt '*' sysbench.threads
