DSCM Candidate Evaluation Form
A. Tool Information
Provide tool name and version #.
NOTE: Only input about the specific versions cited on the DSCM Evaluation Plan will be accepted.
B. Configuration Details
Provide information about the configuration on which you are running
the candidate:
1. CPU architecture and machine specifics
1* output from "psrinfo -v"
1* output from "uname -a"
2. Memory available
1* output from "prtconf"
3. Size of the repository (space)
4. Number of files in the repository
5. Average number of deltas per file
C. Evaluation Areas
Provide information about your findings in each of the following areas:
1. Operation Functionality
Refer to the Requirements Document for detail.
2. Storage
To assess storage use during operation, an option exists on the test harness.
If the -S option is specified, a per-second "df -lk" is run in the background
during each SCM operation. At the end of the operation, the df output is
filtered and displayed. The filtering consists of removing headers lines,
removing data for uninteresting filesystems, and grouping the remaining data
by filesystem.
3. Performance
Performance information must be in absolute terms (e.g., operation X took
YY seconds to complete).
Our internal test harness will be posted to the community. Performance data
should be collected on that set of tests, using whatever hardware you plan to
work on.
4. CPU Utilization
Timing data from the test harness will be used for now. It is anticipated that
most operations will take five minutes or less.
D. Changes/Features Required/Desired
Provide a list/evaluation of the changes/features desired to be incorporated
into the candidate.
Prioritize the list into two sections:
1. Must Have Initially,
2. Want Eventually.
