  • What Happens When You Turn 240 Containers Against A SQL Server To Test VSS Stun Time

    Posted on August 19, 2020 by Justin Paul | 0 Comments
    This is the story of how I created a load generator using containers to performance test MS SQL and the effects on VSS stun time.

    This method of installing VMware Drivers is for those who don’t like the idea of cracking the VMware Tools installer and removing the parts that check for VMware based VMs. I guess you could say that this way is more legit, and shouldn’t violate the EULA … although I never had anyone contact me about…
