Subject: Shell Script to Estimate rPerf Rating of Power Server

Audience: All

Date: March 29, 2007

Nigel Griffith has written a shell script that outputs the "rPerf" rating of a System p server (or roltp rating of older models). This can be useful when you are considering moving workloads between servers.

You can download the script from:

PS I had to modify line 42 of the shell script from let $dd=$dd + 1, to (( dd=$dd + 1 )).
