locktest.py script aims to help deploying and running locktests over multiple NFS clients accessing the same server. The source code of NFS client test is in ./deploy/locktests.tar.gz Setting up lock test with several test machines. ================================================ ./locktests.py --setup -c <machine1> [machine2 ...] -s <my_nfs_server>:</> --setup : Option to setup the test -c <machine> [...] : Setup test on these clients -s <server>:<mountpoint> : NFS server to use, followed by full directory to mount Example: ./locktests.py --setup -c client1 client2 client3 -s NFS_Server:/exported/directory Running lock test over several test machines. ============================================= Run test on already configured test machines. ./locktests.py -n <pid> -f <file> -c <machine1> [machine2 ...] -n <process_id> : Process number each test machine will lauch to perform the test -f <file> : Test file. That must be the same on each machine -c <machine> [...] : Clients. run tests from this clients Example: ./locktests.py -n 50 -f /mnt/nfsv4/testfile -c testmachine1 testmachine2 _________________________________ Vincent ROQUETA - Bull SA - 2005 vincent.roqueta@ext.bull.net
