Hi Robin,
I am trying out the 'netstress' test while testing my 10G NIC Driver
, while the 12 hr stress test passes and then moves on to the 'max sessions
test' it invariably ends up in a situtation where an odd session fails to
connect initially ... like the MAX results are always 2997/29998 out of 3000
sessions:Failed ...
There have been instances where i have seen the same pass as well... .
I tried recreating the same testcase by hand, i.e start netservers on both SUT
and client , run start_netperf.sh with appropriate paramenters (1500 sessions)
from client ,waited for a little while and then did the other way around, ran
start_netperf.sh from SUT ...
I got the following error msg 4 times :
netperf: data send error: Transport endpoint is not connected
i typed 'ps -A | grep netperf/netserve | wc -l ' on both the systems and
confirmed that the SUT was 4 netperf sessions short, I immediately created 4
netperf sessions by hand with the same parameters as expected in the test case
and sure enough there were a total of 3K sessions running and they all ran
fine... Usually that's what seems to be happening , there seems to some glitch
while setting up the sessions initially , but on trying it again ,they all seem
to work just fine..
Is this really a bug in the driver that i need to look at or is this something
not too serious?
Thanks
Somnath
