VMware I/O Analyzer is a virtual appliance designed to provide storage performance in a virtual environment. It is offered as a SUSE appliance that provides a web GUI to interact with.
I deployed I/O Analyzer in my vSphere 6.0 environment to see the performance of VSAN 6 compared to my Synology NAS. With this post you should be able to deploy I/O Analyzer in its simplest form and perform performance testing on your storage.
Whew! What a week VMworld 2015 was! I am now getting back into the groove since coming back home from VMworld 2015 in San Francisco, CA. This was my first year attending VMworld and I had a blast! I took quite a few pictures and wanted to make a quick post about my experience at VMworld 2015.
I can see why the Moscone Center was picked as the location as it is quite large to accommodate the over 23,000 attendees!
