Gabriela Cervantes e3318a04f7 metrics: Update container name in blogbench test
This PR updates the container name to put a random name instead
of using a hard coded name. This PR is a general improvement
to avoid random bug failures specially when we are running on
baremetal environments.

Kata Containers storage I/O tests

The metrics tests in this directory are designed to be used to assess storage IO.

Blogbench test

The blogbench script is based on the blogbench program which is designed to emulate a busy blog server with a number of concurrent threads performing a mixture of reads, writes and rewrites.

Running the blogbench test

The blogbench test can be run by hand, for example:

$ cd metrics
$ bash storage/blogbench.sh

fio test

The fio test utilizes the fio tool, configured to perform measurements upon a single test file.

The test spawns 8 jobs that exercise the I/O types sequential read, random read, sequential write and random write, while collecting data using a block size of 4 Kb, an I/O depth of 2, and uses the libaio engine on a workload with a size of 10 gigabytes for a period of 10 seconds on each I/O type.

The results show the average bandwidth and average number of IOPS per I/O type in JSON format.

The fio test can be run by hand, for example:

$ cd metrics
$ bash storage/fio_test.sh
