Return decision frame 505, if determine to change configuration, process 500 just moves to square frame 507, identifies the variation to architecture there.Described variation can relate to any aspect of architecture, such as physical topology, logical topology or performance parameter.At square frame 509, revise this model according to the variation that is identified.At square frame 513, use modified model to carry out emulation.
Fig. 6 illustrates the example calculation machine equipment 600 that is used to realize described system and method.In its most basic configuration, computing equipment 600 generally comprises at least one CPU (central processing unit) (CPU) 605 and internal memory 610.
According to the actual disposition and the type of computing equipment, internal memory 610 can be (such as the RAM) of volatibility, non-volatile (such as ROM, flash memory or the like) or both a certain combinations.In addition, computing equipment 600 also can have additional feature/function.For example, computing equipment 600 can comprise a plurality of CPU.Described method can be carried out in arbitrary mode by the arbitrary processing unit in the computing equipment 600.For example, described process can be by a plurality of CPU executed in parallel.
Computing equipment 600 also can comprise additional storer (removable and/or not removable), includes but not limited to: magnetic or optical disc or tape.This annex memory is used storer 615 explanations in Fig. 6.Computer storage media comprises volatibility and non-volatile, the removable and immovable media of realizing with arbitrary method that is used for canned data or technology, and described information is such as computer-readable instruction, data structure, program module or other data.Internal memory 610 and storer 615 all are the examples of computer storage media.Computer storage media includes but not limited to: RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory techniques, CD-ROM, Digital video disc (DVD) or other optical memory, magnetic tape, tape, magnetic disk memory or other magnetic storage apparatus or can be used to preserve expectation information and can be by any other media of computing equipment 600 accesses.Any such computer storage media can be the part of computing equipment 600.
Computing equipment 600 also can comprise the communication facilities 640 that equipment can be communicated by letter with miscellaneous equipment.Communication facilities 640 is examples of telecommunication media.Telecommunication media generally embodies computer-readable instruction, data structure, program module or other data in modulated data signal, described modulated data signal is such as carrier wave or other transmission mechanism, and comprises that any information transmits media.Term " modulated data signal " means the signal that its one or more features are provided with or change in the mode to signal internal information coding.For example but unrestricted, telecommunication media comprises as cable network and wired media straight line is connected and the wireless medium as acoustics, RF, infrared or other wireless medium.Term used herein " computer readable medium " comprises computer storage media and telecommunication media.Described method can be encoded with arbitrary computer readable medium of arbitrary form, such as data, computer executable instructions or the like.
Computing equipment 600 also can have input equipment 635, such as keyboard, mouse, pen, voice-input device, touch input device or the like.Also can comprise the output device 630 as display, loudspeaker, printer etc.All these equipment all are well known in the art, and need not go through.
As mentioned above, described system, method and data structure can be used the data used from available management configure base framework model automatically.By having strengthened these systems, method and data structure in conjunction with a robotization affirmation and alignment features.Model can be identified and be calibrated to user-selected order of accuarcy.
After having disposed the model of architecture automatically, can carry out the performance prediction of guaranteeing this model is accurately in the degree that the user carries out.If do not reach the degree of accuracy of appointment, then can carry out calibration and revise the not configurable aspect of model, so that reach the accuracy of appointment.The configurable aspect of model, such as the expression of hardware, topology, working load or the like, generally be not calibrated change.Calibration can change the parameter that is associated with model, such as action cost, background load or other parameter as a model template part.
The action cost is the numerical value of the resource requirement of a particular transaction treatment step on the expression one specific hardware resource.The action cost can use for employed hardware device type specific means measure.Generally speaking, the action cost is independent of the particular instance of equipment.For example, the action cost of CPU can be measured with the megacycle that calculates, and the action cost of disk can be measured with required disk the number of transmissions and institute's data quantity transmitted.Different CPU and disk may adopt the simulation time of varying number to come the action of processing requirements same action cost.The action cost generally obtains between the development stage of basic construction model, by this should be used for obtaining in the indoor modeling of performance test.
Ideally, whole action costs of a particular device type (for example CPU) can be described with single numerical value (for example megacycle), can be on whole examples of this device type convergent-divergent exactly.In the practice, convergent-divergent may be remarkable.For example, moving identical action with the twice clock speed on CPU may not can cause finishing this action with half the time.It is normally unpractiaca to remedy the whole factors that influence this non-linear convergent-divergent.Even the very complicated model that can accurately remedy whole possible factors is provided, also because multiple former thereby still can not use this model.For example, calculating required time of net result and/or internal memory may be than required much higher of naive model, causes high surprising long simulation time.Equally, for simple data aggregation and model configuration, required input variable number may be excessive.May not expect to spend a lot of time and efforts to come Test Application and hardware.
In order to alleviate the difficult trade-off problem between model accuracy and the complexity, can obtain both benefits with calibration, for example for the input of wide region, can use one simply, model fast with the minimum accuracy of appointment.Can realize confirming to determine whether the modeling accuracy is abundant.Can realize calibrating and regulate the action cost, so that reflect employed specific input set preferably.
The background load is another variable that runs into usually in practice, but does not generally realize in conventional model.The background load be meant by be not a working load model part should be used for using hardware resource.For example, the virus examination program can make each disk that reads need extra CPU expense, so that whether the content in the scanning disk has virus signature.Local Area Network is another example, because LAN seldom acts on single application.More commonly, LAN shares at many intercomputers of a plurality of application of operation, and each computing machine all has the influence of himself to network.Sometimes, the user may learn this background load, and can comprise the part of this load as the initial model configuration, for example by specifying the fixedly utilization rate number percent of LAN.As if yet more commonly, the user does not know these additional effect, only inaccurate up to performance model.
In addition, some background load effects may not be constant, but depend on working load.The virus examination program is an example.Usually, disk operating is independent of CPU and modeling.One " CPU cost " field may be provided in the disk model.The effect of virus examination program look be to the increase of whole issued transaction of comprising disk access action the CPU cost.
In order to confirm the accuracy of a performance model, can catch the performance that is modeled application.Performance data can be caught with statistical counter, the aspect of performance that statistical counter tolerance is used and used the hardware device of carrying out thereon.For example, can use Microsoft
Figure C200510088584D0020141451QIETU
" performance counter " announced.Other example comprises that by application program be hardware tolerance (for example employed CPU time amount of CPU) sum counter that metric performance is created, and described performance is such as the average transaction processing speed.
Generally developed model and come the part of usability counter tolerance as the model configuration information.Level of abstraction that can preference pattern comes the availability of matching performance information.The output of model also can be represented with these performance counters.For example, how many CPU time output has been used and has been used the average transaction processing speed that is continued during can being included in a series of emulation issued transaction on specific CPU.
As mentioned above, during the robotization configuration, can import the information relevant from the OM database with the application that is modeled.The example of this database is the database that is kept by Microsoft's Action Manager (MOM), comprises the history value of the performance counter that is modeled application.These counters can be caught input service load (for example handled issued transaction number), can catch observed result (for example CPU time that is consumed) again.
Affirmation can comprise: adopt automatic configured models; Model input be set to the historical perspective that obtains from the OM database to performance counter value (issued transaction number for example hourly); Move a performance simulation; And institute's prediction result and historical perspective to performance counter value (for example CPU time that is consumed) compare.For a performance counter value that predicts, the accuracy of performance model not only can be with relative mode (being number percent), but also can represent with absolute mode (as the megacycle number).Required accuracy can be represented with any of this dual mode.In addition, performance counter can divide in groups.Required accuracy can be applied to this group generally.For example, user's portion's disk bandwidth prediction of demanding perfection possibly is accurate in 20%, and perhaps the whole CPU megacycles predictions on the front end web server are accurate in 5%.
Performance counter can be organized into two classes based on the scope of counter.Some counters are applied to an application-specific.For example, application can apply the cpu usage that is caused by using for mail server.These counters can be defined as the application specific counter.Operating system (OS) also is responsible for the overall performance of surveillance and is applied counter, such as total cpu usage.The counter of these system scopes can comprise whole application that use is carried out in system.When having error in model, these counters can be used for determining the source of error.Error can be characterized by working load correlated error and the irrelevant error of working load.
The working load correlated error comprises such error: its size changes according to the function of application workloads.For example, the working load correlated error may stem from modeling assumption, startup effect (for example cold buffer memory), the application saturated (as locking) of mistake, the issued transaction classification of losing or the like.The issued transaction classification right and wrong of losing usually see, because in general, and the whole issued transaction of supporting of the only the most frequently used issued transaction of modeling, rather than modeling.The effect of working load correlated error can be by comparing application specific counter and modeling result to determine.For example, if the expection CPU usage that mail server is used is 10%, and the actual CPU usage of using is 15%, and then this difference of 5% is exactly the working load correlated error.
The irrelevant error of working load comprises that its size is independent of the error of working load.The irrelevant error of working load generally stems from other working load that does not comprise and the expense of coming from OS or model.For example, individual server equipment may not only move a mail server and uses, but also moves a file server and use.The mail server application model may not can remedy by file server uses caused equipment operating position.The effect of the irrelevant error of working load can be calculated by the counter of system scope and application specific counter are compared.For example, total and CPU usage is 35% if the CPU usage that mail server is used is 25%, then this difference of 10% is exactly owing to working load that constant load or background load the cause error that has nothing to do.
The part of the default value of required accuracy limitations as basic model can be provided.For example, if it has been found in practice that disk model is accurate especially, then can be default required accuracy equipment 5%, because this extraneous value may be the result of the Fundamentals hidden more, such as the background load.On the contrary, if known CPU model is more inaccurate, then default required accuracy can be made as 20% to avoid drawing inaccurate conclusion from the result.
Can show the accuracy grouping with simplification information and reduce user load.For example, confirm that user interface can illustrate the independent expression of front end web server with an accuracy scope (for example-6% to+7%).Rather than all accuracys of front end web servers are shown in the data center.Coloud coding can further strengthen the availability at interface.For example, the performance counter that accuracy drops in user's specified limit can show that the counter of approaching restriction can be with orange demonstration with green, and the counter that exceeds restriction is with red display.
If the user pleases oneself with respect to forecasting accuracy to the observed accuracy of over-all properties counter, then affirmation process is finished, and the user may use this model to carry out what-if, and is more confident for net result.Otherwise, can after confirming, carry out one or more calibration cycles.
Calibration comprises that the action cost of regulating the key property model or background load are to improve the accuracy of model validation.If inaccurate fundamental cause depends on working load (being the working load correlated error), then regulate and move the effect that successfully may produce expectation.If fundamental cause is independent of working load, for example Another Application is being used the number percent of LAN bandwidth, and then regulating the action cost can all cause inaccurate result for all working load class except a rank of selecting for use for affirmation.
The load of adjusting background can improve the accuracy of model validation by the notion that comprises the load of working load background context.The background load can be a constant, or an and scalar multiplying each other of work at present load.The background load can be used according to each equipment, rather than uses according to each action.Yet, underestimate the situation of application performance for Capturing Models, can expand the background load to comprise a negative load (, making it be higher than its right capacity) promptly based on model conditioning equipment capacity.Negative load can be used to the equipment that remedies than the model result situation of convergent-divergent better.
The notion of background load is used in the resource capacity of employed basic hardware model in the emulation.The background load can be constant (is working load irrelevant error), or working load is relevant, and serves as positive or negative factor.Regulate the used correct number of background load and depend on basic model.If model is linear, be sufficient then with correcting multiplied together.Yet, may need unique calculating to determine suitable correction factor than complicated model.According to default accuracy value, these calculating are provided as the calibration function in the hardware model.This calibration function can call for each device type with observed inaccuracy.Calibration function can return suitable factor or constant amount, changes resources costs with this, is zero so that inaccuracy is made as.
After observing the inaccuracy error, execution analysis partly is because the constant effect with which that determine inaccuracy, and which partly is because the working load correlation effect.This is determined and can make by the result of relatively twice emulation.Determine also can make by the result of the result of application specific counter and system scope performance counter is compared.
The inaccuracy assessment that emulation is carried out comprises with two different working load values carries out twice emulation, and determines that the inaccuracy of this twice emulation is to keep identical or variation.Can use any working load of second emulation to change, such as half or twice of last working load.Working load is doubled to cause nonlinear performance effect, such as approaching saturated independent component.For example, the performance of total system may become index, even behavior is normally linear.Hide, half that use working load in second emulation may provide result preferably in many cases.Yet half working load in second emulation may not expect when initialization load is very low, because model is near the fineness (level of granularity) of performance counter, and the performance effect may be lost in noise.Therefore, use the calibration of this solution to comprise:
A) move emulation second period with different working load intensity (as half of working load);
B) each hardware device that is modeled of calibrating for needs:
I) be the performance counter of the observed performance counter of first and second emulation and prediction to use a constant background load or a variable background load with definite equipment;
II) call suitable hardware model calibration function, provide constant or variable background load error and
Obtain corresponding constant or variable background load factor;
III) to basic equipment application load factor.
The inaccuracy assessment that emulation is carried out can be expressed as follows:
e = I &CenterDot; e v + e c &DoubleRightArrow; u m - u p = I &CenterDot; e v + e
Wherein I represents load, and e represents total error, e cThe expression constant error, e vThe variable error that expression causes owing to load, u pThe capacity utilization of expression prediction, u mThe capacity utilization that expression records.
In above formula, u m, u pWith I be known.The single system that has caused having 2 formula of 2 unknown numbers with two kinds of load running emulation.Therefore, e vAnd e cDetermine easily.
The inaccuracy assessment that the usability counter carries out generally requires application specific counter and the paired availability of system scope performance counter, has characterized the utilization rate level of same equipment.Calibration can followingly be carried out:
A) determine that error is owing to the background load causes (for example Yu Ce utilization rate counter deducts the system scope counter).The result is the constant background load that is applied to equipment.
B) determine the error (for example Yu Ce utilization rate counter deducts the application specific counter) that working load is relevant.The result is that the function according to load comes the application background load.
C) to the load factor of basic equipment application combination.
After finishing calibration steps, can confirm once more.
Fig. 7 illustrates and uses one to confirm that model comes the instantiation procedure 700 of emulation architecture performance.Process 700 is similar to process shown in Figure 3 300, but comprises the additional step behind the square frame 307.
At decision frame 703, determine whether to carry out the affirmation of automatic allocation models.If not, process 700 just proceeds to square frame 309.If will carry out affirmation, then process 700 moves to square frame 707, confirms this model there.Will be used to confirm the instantiation procedure of model in conjunction with Fig. 8 discussion.This process then moves to square frame 707, exports simulation result there.
Fig. 8 illustrates the instantiation procedure 800 of the model that is used to confirm architecture.At square frame 803, sign is from the result of emulation.At square frame 805, determine the working load data from measuring.The working load data that record offer architecture by administration module.At square frame 807, simulation result is compared with the working load data that record.From comparison, calculate error.At decision frame 809, determine that error is whether in acceptable level.If process 800 just moves to square frame 815, confirm model there.
Return decision frame 809, if error not in acceptable level, then process 800 moves to square frame 811, determines the load factor of each equipment of architecture there.The data that load factor is provided by data that the overall performance counter is provided and application specific counter compare to be determined.Load factor also can be determined from the result that twice emulation was generated who carries out with two different operating load levels.The example of these methods will be discussed in conjunction with Fig. 9 and 10.
At square frame 813, calibrate this model with load factor.For example, model can be configured to and remedy during the emulation as the irrelevant error of the working load of constant background load, and comes convergent-divergent working load correlated error based on workload level.At square frame 815, after calibration, confirm model.Should be appreciated that the step in the square frame 809,811 and 813 can repeat, till error is in acceptable level.
The instantiation procedure 900 that the data of using the application specific counter to be provided are calibrated a device model is provided Fig. 9.At square frame 903, sign one utilization rate value from emulation.At square frame 907, the data that counter provided of using system scope are determined total error.For example, determine total error by the utilization rate value that from the utilization rate value of emulator, deducts the system scope counter and provided.Total error can be represented a background load, and this background load comprises a working load correlated components (application load that for example is not modeled) and a working load independent component load that OS generated of equipment (for example by).This background load has produced error, because do not remedied by model during loading on emulation.
At square frame 909, the data of using the application specific counter to be provided are determined the working load correlated error.The application specific counter is determined the utilization rate of application.The working load correlated error can be determined from the emulation that is associated with application and the difference of instream factor value.Remaining total error is the constant error that is independent of working load.At square frame 911, from constant error and working load correlated error, calculate the load factor that is used to calibrate.
The data that Figure 10 illustrates use to be provided with the repetition emulation of different operating load level are calibrated the instantiation procedure 1000 of a device model.At square frame 1005, sign is from the utilization rate value that records of two workload level.At square frame 1007, determine the emulation utilization rate value of two workload level.At square frame 1009, calculate the total error of two workload level.For example, total error can be calculated by deduct simulation result from the data that record.Total error is represented the background load that do not remedied by model.
At square frame 1015, come the computational workload correlated error by the total error that compares two workload level.For example, if total error is different under two workload level, then this difference represents that error depends on working load.All the other errors are independent of working load.At square frame 1017, from the irrelevant sum of errors working load correlated error of working load, determine a load factor.
For affirmation and the calibration that realizes automatic allocation models, the automation modeling module 100 shown in Fig. 1 and 2 can be configured to realize process 800,900 and 1000 discussed above.
Though illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of the present invention, be appreciated that here and can make various variations, and do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
