With this we will have fully distributed the load in terms of disk!

I/O Analyzer

In this document we will review a utility from VMware Labs that will help us test our storage system, under a virtual appliance called VMware IO Analyzer. This simple appliance will show us performance graphs at the VM and host level, will use Iometer for this purpose & This is top,
