Performance Testing Using DevTest

[Saurabh Mishra]

Hi All ,

Can anyone please let us know , what amount of Load can a Lisa service sustain for Performance Testing and what impact will be on the server while PT testing going on.

I have been asked this question by my senior that :

Do you know how much load LISA can sustain.

Hi Saurabh,

 

You can have a look at this: https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/devops/devtest-solutions/10-6/installing/installing-and-configuring-devtest-server/post-installation/sample-performance-benchmarks-for-basic-service-virtualization.html

 

The load LISA can sustain is only limited by the resources of the system on which the VSE is running. So these are some good practices:

• Get a powerful system, make it dedicated to only running the Performance VSE process
• Give the VSE enough RAM via JVM option -Xmx=, also assign the immediately the minimum RAM -Xms= equal to the maximum RAM to avoid JVM memory allocation during the load test.
• Only use default out-of-the-box VSMs (so no customized steps) and run them in "Most Efficient" execution mode
• Set VSE logging to OFF or ERROR level

 

Many of the above and more are also mentioned in above documentation.

 

Cheers,

Danny

Hi Saurabh,

First you need a perf license for the same. Secondly, there are many other factors which will have an impact on load sustained by LISA. Danny already few key one in her post.
-- Count of VS deployed on VSE
-- Type of services deployed on VSE
-- Log Level
-- Memory allocation
-- Machine hardware configuration etc.

Thanks
