Performance tool test for IOPS/latency

Hi, 

 

We've just set up a new metrocluster AFF220 with 30K IOPS guarantee by NETAPP. 

There is a just a few VMs that have migrated on this storage and we'd like to test IOPS and latency performance. 

However, that VMs are not generating that much IOPS. 

 

Is there any NETAPP tool to test IOPS and latency performance by generating random read/writes ad stuff like that ? 

Thanks for your ideas.
