I try to run HCIBench on a non vSAN VMFS datastore to compare the results with a similar sized vSAN environment. The test starts and runs for a while, deploying all the needed VMs but then ends with "vSAN Is Not Enabled in Cluster xxxx".
The fling homepage states that the fling is not limited to vSAN storage.
"HCIBench is not only a benchmark tool designed for vSAN, but also could be used to evaluate the performance of all kinds of Hyper-Converged Infrastructure Storage in vSphere environment."
I don't see any option on the fling configuration page to enable/disable vSAN.
I'm working on this HCIBench test. I have a question while configuring the test.
1.What are the Important components to HCIBench test results (IOPs, R/W Latency)
- Duration? Warmup time? IO Rate?
2. What is mean Latency in Result PDF?
- Average? Maximum??
3. if my test is 300EA VM, But vSAN Performan InfluxDB & Grafana result at In practice, lower Power On VMs were displayed.
Why are the results like this? have an effect on result?
