摘要: A method and apparatus for and article of manufacture for simulating workloads experienced by multiple partitions in a virtualized system are provided. A master workload driver initiates, coordinates and regulates one or more workload drivers that execute one or more workload simulation tasks in a logical partition. Further, each workload driver may be configured to report a measure of performance regarding the workload to the master control driver where results of many workload drivers may be correlated and analyzed. A configuration file specifies the characteristics of each simulation. Further, the rate and nature of workloads may be adjusted dynamically during a given simulation to model the performance under different real-world scenarios of different computational loads that may be experienced by the virtualized system.
