OSTRESS

Image
 "OSTRESS" is one of the RML Utilities ( RML Utilities or RML Utils ) with which we can estimate the load on the pressure. However I am not going to explain this feature in detail just adding the command how to run it. Before we run the below command we need to download RML Utilities and can start working with it. Here I am explaining about OSTRESS. You need to run this in the "CMD" not in PowerShell. 1) Install RML Utilities 2) Chnage teh directory(CD) to that path or folder  where you install RML utilities. 3) -n30--> 100000 Connections parallelly run the same query 100000 times which mean one connection will run 100000 queries, here the query is same.

After couple of days working on Docker I have un installed it and start work on VMware Work station. At that time I got the error below when I try to open already installed VM in VMWare work station.  1) I already removed the feature Hyper-V from "Turn Windows feature On/Off" from my system. Bu even after that we are able to see the same error. Then I open command prompt in run the below commands which fix the issue and allow to run VM smoothly. The commands are below: I have already run this so I could see "The Operation completed successfully". If you would have run you may see in the beginning that you could see the " hypervisorlaunchtype AUTO ".  When you run "bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off".
