In case anyone else wants to use ORION on Windows, I finally figured out how to
get it to work. Apparently you have to specify an actual Oracle datafile, not
just a directory or empty text file. I put
"C:\oracle\oradata\orcl\example01.dbf" in my mytest.lun file, and then ORION
worked, giving me the following command-line output:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\Orion>orion -run simple -testname mytest -num_disks 1
ORION: ORacle IO Numbers -- Version 10.2.0.1.0
Test will take approximately 9 minutes
Larger caches may take longer
And the following results in mytest_summary.txt:
ORION VERSION 10.2.0.1.0
Commandline:
-run simple -testname mytest -num_disks 1
This maps to this test:
Test: mytest
Small IO size: 8 KB
Large IO size: 1024 KB
IO Types: Small Random IOs, Large Random IOs
Simulated Array Type: CONCAT
Write: 0%
Cache Size: Not Entered
Duration for each Data Point: 60 seconds
Small Columns:, 0
Large Columns:, 0, 1, 2
Total Data Points: 8
Name: C:\oracle\oradata\orcl\example01.dbf Size: 157294592
1 FILEs found.
Maximum Large MBPS=9.01 @ Small=0 and Large=2
Maximum Small IOPS=52 @ Small=2 and Large=0
Minimum Small Latency=20.45 @ Small=1 and Large=0

I've not used it myself, but Oracle has a tool called ORION for testing I/O
systems by creating a simulated database workload. It might do what you want.
You can get it from OTN:
