Sybench

Sysbench provides benchmarking capabilities for Linux. sysbench supports testing CPU, memory, file I/O, mutex performance, and even MySQL benchmarking

Running Sysbench

Given that you followed instructions to deploy operator, you can modify cr.yaml

The optional argument runtime_class can be set to specify an optional runtime_class to the podSpec runtimeClassName. This is primarily intended for Kata containers.

Note: please ensure you set 0 for other workloads if editing the cr.yaml file otherwise

your resource file may look like this:

apiVersion: ripsaw.cloudbulldozer.io/v1alpha1
kind: Benchmark
metadata:
  name: sysbench-benchmark
  namespace: my-ripsaw
spec:
  workload:
    name: sysbench
    args:
      enabled: true
      #kind: vm
      # If you want to run this as a VM uncomment the above
      tests:
      - name: cpu
        parameters:
          cpu-max-prime: 2000
      - name: fileio
        parameters:
          file-test-mode: rndrw

Name here refers to testname and can be cpu or fileio or memory etc and the parameters are the parametes for the particular test. You can find more information at sysbench documentation and online.

Once done creating/editing the resource file, you can run it by:

# kubectl apply -f resources/crds/ripsaw_v1alpha1_sysbench_cr.yaml # if edited the original one
# kubectl apply -f <path_to_file> # if created a new cr file

Deploying the above(running cpu) would result in

# kubectl get pods
NAME                                 READY   STATUS              RESTARTS   AGE
benchmark-operator-6bfccf9dc-cfzvc   1/1     Running             0          7m18s
example-benchmark-sysbench-9cvff         0/1     ContainerCreating   0          51s

Note: The pods are set to delete after 600s from the job completion. This can be edited by updating ttlSecondsAfterFinished in the job spec to 0.

You can look at results by using logs functionality - kubectl logs <client>, it should look like:

# kubectl logs -f example-benchmark-sysbench-9cvff
WARNING: the --test option is deprecated. You can pass a script name or path on the command line without any options.
