Bug 2138974

1. Proposed title of this feature request

[RFE]  Please re-run the storage tests to obtain both sequential and random read and write tests

3. What is the nature and description of the request?

Our customer would like to know whether the random read and write values given by the script attached to KCS article 3397771 are good or bad.  The article gives guidance on the sequential results of that script, but the customer would like to check all of the results given by that script.

4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

The customer is afraid that their next attempt to upgrade to Satellite 6.10 will take longer than expected.

5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

We need to update the KCS article.  Unfortunately, this requires access to hardware that support lacks.

6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

Run the script attached to KCS article 3397771 on multiple hardware choices, giving multiple results, and offer recommendations for good Satellite performance for both sequential and random test results.

7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?

no

8. Does the customer have any specific time-line dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?

no

9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?

no

10. List any affected packages or components.

n/a

11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

yes
