ORION (Oracle I/O Calibration Tool)
is a standalone tool for calibrating the I/O performance
for storage systems that are intended to be used for Oracle
databases. The calibration results are useful for understanding
the performance capabilities of a storage system, either
to uncover issues that would impact the performance of
an Oracle database or to size a new database installation.
Since ORION is a standalone tool, the user is not required
to create and run an Oracle database.
With the goal of closely mimicing the Oracle database,
ORION generates a synthetic I/O workload, using the same
I/O software stack as Oracle. ORION can be configured
to generate a wide range of I/O workloads, including ones
that simulate OLTP and data warehouse workloads.
ORION is available for many platforms. Support for additional
platforms will be added in the future. The User's Guide
provides detailed usage documentation, including a "getting
started" section and trouble-shooting tips. A summary
of how to use ORION is also available directly from ORION
by invoking the "-help" option.
Please note that ORION is not supported by Oracle.
