Customizing db_STRESS

One of our colleagues, Dimitri, at the Paris Sun solution center has developed a real neat and useful tool called dim_STAT. To make it short it's a tool for both high-level and detailed, monitoring and performance analysis of Solaris and Linux systems.

Data is collected and saved in a MySQL database, and it provides a very functional web base user interface. It allows real time or off line monitoring, multi-host etc.

Test stressing OpenSolaris with MySQL

Over the last months I have seen some impressive presentations about Open Solaris, and I wanted to give it a try.

The live CD provided with opensolaris 2008.05 is very easy to install, and so I set it up in a virtual machine.

The environment looks familiar for a seasoned Linux user, and thus I decided to use it as a test bed for my MySQL Sandbox, which includes a test suite that lets you run a complete test with little effort.

Well, little effort for you, maybe, but not for the operating system. The test puts a lot of stress on the …
