The acceptance-small.sh script is a wrapper around auster that runs the test group 'regression' unless a test is specified.

Lustre Regression and Feature Tests

Name Status Test Description
conf-sanity A set of unit tests that verify the configuration tools, and runs Lustre with multiple different setups to ensure correct operation in unusual system configurations.
dne_sanity Run sanity parallel on different directories at the same time.
insanity A set of tests that verify the multiple concurrent failure conditions.
large-scale Large-scale tests that verify version-based recovery features.
lfsck deprecated Tests e2fsck and lfsck to detect and fix filesystem corruption. Use sanity-lfsck instead.
lnet-selftest Runs LNET self test on hosts defined in test configuration.
lustre-rsync-test Verifies the lustre_rsync (replication) feature.
metadata-updates Tests that metadata updates are properly completed when multiple clients create/delete files and modify the attributes of files.
mmp Tests for multiple mount protection (MMP) feature.
performance-sanity Performance mdsrate tests (small file create/open/delete, large file create/open/delete, lookup rate 10M file dir, lookup rate 10M file 10 dir, getattr small file, and getattr large files).
ost-pools A tests that exercises the OST pools feature.
parallel-scale Runs functional tests (connectathon, cascading_rw, write_disjoint, write_append_truncate, parallel_grouplock, statahead), performance tests (IOR, compilebench and metabench), and a stress test (simul).
racer Tests for filesystem race conditions by concurrently creating, moving, deleting, etc. a set of files.
recovery-double-scale Failover test for all pair-wise combinations of node failures.
recovery-mds-scale The server failover test: for a duration of 24 hours, repeatedly fail over a random facet (MDS or OST) at 10 minute intervals and verify that no application errors occur.
recovery-random-scale Verifies client failure not affecting other clients.
recovery-small A set of unit tests that verify RPC replay after communications failure.
replay-dual A set of unit tests that verify the recovery from two clients after server failure.
replay-ost-single A set of unit tests that verify recovery after OST failure.
replay-single A set of unit tests that verify recovery after MDS failure.
replay-vbr Verifies version-based recovery feature.
runtests Simple basic regression test that verifies data persistence across write, unmount, and remount. This is one of the few tests that verifies data integrity across a full filesystem shutdown and remount, unlike many tests which at most only verify the existence/size of files.
sanity A set of regression tests that verify operation under normal operating conditions. This tests a large number of unusual operations that have previously caused functional or data correctness issues with Lustre. Some of the tests are Lustre specific, and hook into the Lustre fault injection framework using the "lctl set_param fail_loc=X" command to activate triggers in the code to simulate unusual operating conditions that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to simulate.
sanityn Tests that verify operations from two clients under normal operating conditions. This is done by mounting the same filesystem twice on a single client, in order to allow a single script/program to execute and verify filesystem operations on multiple "clients" without having to be a distributed program itself.
sanity-gss Verifies GSSAPI features.
sanity-hsm Sanity test for HSM feature.
sanity-krb5 Verifies Kerberos features.
sanity-lfsck Sanity test for lfsck
sanity-quota A set of tests that verify filesystem quotas.
sanity-scrub
sanity-sec Verifies Lustre identity features. , including UID/GID mapping

Auxiliary Test

Name Status Script Description
fsx The file system exerciser was developed outside of Lustre and is intended to stress test unusual IO and file operations. It does buffered and mmap reads and writes with random size and offset, truncate, open, close on a file. It verifies data integrity after each step. A lustre-developed extension allows fsx to run against multiple mountpoints to verify distributed IO operation correctness. (Source HPDD Wiki Auster)
