Dell Networking S6000 System Test Report
Tests Combining Medium and Heavy Work Load with Full HD Desktop
This portion of testing concluded with VDI clients emulating the combination of
workload with Full HD
A total of 206 and 190 concurrent VDI clients, respectively, were launched. End-user experience
in both tests was excellent.
A full graphical depiction of the results of the test that combined heavy workload with Full HD,
captured from the interface of an ESXi hypervisor, is below. The graphics show server resources
consumed.
During testing, it became apparent that the S6000 was not a limitation to VDI scalability. The
limitations were the VMware Horizon View server CPU and memory resources.
In the charts below, the line graph for CPU, Disk Latency and Active Memory was based on one
ESXi hypervisor.
Maximum network utilization was observed to be 88 Mbps. The Network line graph (location) is
based on two ESXi hypervisors.
Network traffic was about 460 Kbps per View Client. In this case, the View Clients were classified
by the VMware Horizon View Architecture Planning Guide as Knowledge Workers.
Characteristics of a Knowledge Worker, the second of four classifications in ascending order,
includes a usage level of standard productivity and a virtual machine configuration of 1vCPU and
1GB RAM.
The S6000 delivered excellent end-user experience to 190 concurrent VDI clients in a test that
combined heavy workload with Full HD. Utilization of CPU, active memory and network utilization
peaked nearly 90 minutes into the test, which lasted approximately two hours, 40 minutes.
