NAME
     filebench - framework of workloads to  measure  and  compare
     filesystem performance

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/benchmarks/filebench/bin/filebench profile


     /usr/benchmarks/filebench/bin/filebench -c stats_dir...


DESCRIPTION
     filebench runs workloads to measure and  compare  filesystem
     performance.


     Full documentation can be found at the performance community
     at: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Main/

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -c stats_dir...    Generates a HTML file  (index.html)  that
                        is  a  comparison of the specified direc-
                        tories. stats_dir specifies the directory
                        or  directories  in which the results are
                        stored.


OPERANDS
     The following operands are supported:

     profile    Specifies the name of the configuration file end-
                ing in .prof. The configuration file specifies:

                    o    what workloads to run,

                    o    what parameters to run,

                    o    the directory path on which to  operate,
                         and

                    o    the directory path in which to store the

     1    An error occurred.


     2    Invalid command line options were specified.


EXAMPLES
     Example 1 Running the Multi-stream Sequential Read Workload


     The following example runs the workloads  described  in  the
     configuration file named sqread.prof:


       # filebench sqread



     Example 2 Comparing Multiple Runs


     The following example compares the results of  two  previous
     runs.



     This example assumes that the results from the two  previous
     filebench    runs   were   located   in   the   directories:
     /stats/wombat-zfs-noel-Jun_27_2007-15h_45m_33s           and
     /stats/wombat-ufs-noel-Jun_27_2007-15h_52m_11s.



     This example generates a HTML file named index.html in  your
     current working directory.


       # filebench -c /stats/wombat-zfs-noel-Jun_27_2007-15h_45m_33s \
             /stats/wombat-ufs-noel-Jun_27_2007-15h_52m_11s
