Abstract: I/O workload is a critical and important factor to
analyze I/O pattern and to maximize file system performance.
However to measure I/O workload on running distributed parallel file
system is non-trivial due to collection overhead and large volume of
data. In this paper, we measured and analyzed file system activities on
two large-scale cluster systems which had TFlops level high
performance computation resources. By comparing file system
activities of 2009 with those of 2006, we analyzed the change of I/O
workloads by the development of system performance and high-speed
network technology.
