Abstract

Fault injection (FI) is an effective method for the evaluation of system availability. Research on injecting faults into the Itanium architecture system is limited, so a fault injection platform for Itanium architecture which can simulate fault injection using various methods is presented. The platform is high scalable since it develops a generic component design standard that assists the user when adapting the platform to new fault injection tools. A fault injection testing automation system is also developed based on software testing automation framework (STAF). The effectiveness of developed platform has been verified through tests combining workload and fault-load on the target server HP RX6600.
